¾ Wireless Settings: VAP1 (Wireless Settings Private Zone)
{
Basic: Enable the VAP Status if you wish to provide wireless service under
this zone. Assign an ESSID for VAP1 under Private Zone or use default
“airlive-1”, the ESSID of Private Zone will not be broadcasted and internal
staff will need to associate to Private Zone’s VAP1 manually.
{
Security: Configure the wireless network under Private Zone with security
encryption to prevent unauthorized wireless association if necessary. The
encryption standards supported are WEP and WPA-PSK.
{
Advanced: The parameters in advanced are wireless settings that allow
customization of data transmission, enhanced security and wireless roaming.
{
Beacon Interval: The entered amount of time indicates how often the
beacon signal will be sent from the VAP.
{
RTS Threshold: Enter a value between 1 and 2346. RTS (Request to Send)
Threshold determines the packet size at which the system issues a request
to send (RTS) before sending the frame to prevent the hidden node problem.
The RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the value
provided.
{
Fragment Threshold: Enter a value between 256 and 2346. The default is
2346. A packet size larger than this threshold will be fragmented (sent with
several pieces instead of one chunk) before transmission. A smaller value
results in smaller frames but allows a larger number of frames in
transmission. A lower Fragment Threshold setting can be useful in areas
where communication is poor or disturbed by a serious amount of radio
interference.
{
Station Isolation: By enabling this function, all stations wirelessly associated
to this zone are isolated from each other and can only communicate with the
system.
{
WMM: The default is Disable. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Quality of
Service (QoS) feature that prioritizes wireless data packets based on four
access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. Applications
without WMM and applications that do not require QoS are assigned to the
best-effort category, which receives a lower priority than that of voice and
video. Therefore, WMM decides which data streams are more important and
assigns them a higher traffic priority. This option works with WMM-capable
clients only.
Normally we use VAP2, the VAP under Public Zone to provide wireless service to public
clients in a hotspot environment. To configure Public Zone’s Wireless Settings, go to: Main
Menu >>System >> Zone Configuration, click Configure of Public zone
