DESCRIPTION

Wireless Port
Control

To control wireless stations access to the wired network, select a control method from
the drop-down list box. Choose from No Authentication Required, Authentication
Required
and No Access Allowed.
No Authentication Required allows all wireless stations access to the wired network
without entering user names and passwords. This is the default setting.
Authentication Required means that all wireless stations have to enter user names
and passwords before access to the wired network is allowed.
No Access Allowed blocks all wireless stations access to the wired network.

ReAuthentication
Timer

Specify how often wireless stations have to re-enter user names and passwords in
order to stay connected. This field is activated only when you select Authentication
Required
in the Wireless Port Control field.
Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. The default time interval is 1800
seconds (30 minutes).

If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS

server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has

priority.

Idle Timeout

The Prestige automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network after
a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the user name and password
again before access to the wired network is allowed.
This field is activated only when you select Authentication Required in the Wireless
Port Control
field. The default time interval is 3600 seconds (1 hour).
