Introduction

v1.0, May 2008

Security Profiles. When using multiple BSSIDs, you can configure unique security settings
(encryption, SSID, etc.) for each BSSID.

Hidden Mode. The SSID is not broadcast, assuring only clients configured with the correct
SSID can connect.

Secure Telnet Command Line Interface. The Telnet command line interface enables direct
access over the serial port and easy scripting of configuration of multiple WNDAP330 across
an extensive network via the Ethernet interface. An SSH client is required.

Configuration Backup. Configuration settings can be backed up to a file and restored.

Secure and Economical Operation. Adjustable power output allows more secure or
economical operation.

Power over Ethernet. Power can be supplied to the WNDAP330 over the Ethernet port from
any 802.3af compliant mid-span or end-span source. Please refer to the Appendix for a list of
compliant Netgear PoE switches.

Autosensing Ethernet Connection with

Auto Uplink

Interface. Connects to 10/100/1000

Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet networks.

LED Indicators. Power, test, LAN speed, LAN activity, and wireless activity for each radio
mode are easily identified.

Wireless Multimedia (WMM) Support. WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM
allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-
dependent information, like video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For
WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM.

Quality of Service (QoS) Support. You can configure parameters that affect traffic flowing
from the wireless access point to the client station and traffic flowing from the client station to
the wireless access point. The QoS feature allows you to prioritize traffic, such as voice and
video traffic, so that packets do not get dropped.

VLAN Security Profiles. Each Security Profile is automatically allocated a VLAN ID as each
Security Profile is modified.

802.11a/b/g/n Standards-based Wireless Networking
