1.4 Applications
The SL-2011 wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly
efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications
made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs:
1. Difficult-to-wire environments
There are many situations where wires can not or can not easily be laid.
Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make
the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive.

2. Temporary workgroups
Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibitions, disaster-recovery,
temporary office and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN
established and removed.

3. The ability to access real-time information


Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can
access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers
and processing information.

4. Frequently changed environments


Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where the
workplace is frequently rearranged.

5. Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks


SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small
network.

6. Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks


Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead
caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless
LANs.

7. Wired LAN backup


Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for missioncritical applications running on wired networks.

8. Training/Educational Facilities
Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless
connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and
learning.

1.5 Network Configurations


To better understand how the SL-2011 wireless LAN products work
together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few
of the possible SL-2011 network configurations. The SL-2011 wireless
LAN products can be configured as:
1. Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs.
2. Infrastructure for enterprise LANs.
3. IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN TA/Cable/DSL Modem Connect Internet and your
SOHO network.

Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode


This is the simplest network configuration that several computers
equipped with the PC cards that form a wireless network whenever they
are within range of one another (Figure 1-2). In ad-hoc mode, each
client is linked peer-to-peer and would only have access to the
resources of the other client and requires no the access point. This is
the easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless
network.

Figure 1-2 A wireless ad-hoc network

Infrastructure Mode
The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this
mode, all wireless communication between two computers has to be via
the AP whether the AP is wired to an Ethernet network or stands alone.
If used as a stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent
wireless LANs by acting a repeater, which effectively doubles the
distance between wireless stations as shown in Figure 1-3.

Figure 1-3 Extended-range independent WLAN using AP as repeater


If wired to an Ethernet network as shown in Figure 1-4, the AP serves
as a bridge and provides the link between the server and the wireless
clients. The wireless clients can move freely throughout the coverage
area of the AP while remaining connected to the server. Since the AP is
connected to the wired network, each client would have access to server
resources as well as to other clients.

Access points have a finite range, on the order of 50 meters indoor and
100 meters outdoors. In a very large facility such as an enterprise, a
warehouse, or on a college campus, it will probably be necessary to
install more than one access point to cover an entire building or campus,
as shown in Figure 1-5. In this scenario, access points hand the client
off from one to another in a way that is invisible to the client, ensuring
unbroken connectivity. Wireless clients can roam seamlessly between
different coverage areas and remain connected to the network.

IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN TA/Cable/DSL Modem


In infrastructure mode, in addition to acting as a bridge between an
Ethernet and wireless network, the AP can be configured as an IP
sharing device for Internet access as shown in Figure 1-6. You don t
have to buy an expensive router. Nor do you have to buy several
modems and setup phone lines. When you share one AP, one modem,
one single dial-up account, and one phone line, dozens of network users
can go surfing the Internet concurrently.

4-1-4 Wireless LAN


This page describes the setting parameters of the wireless LAN. The
definitions of each item are illustrated as follows G
1.

Regulatory Domain G
The regulatory domain is the operating
frequency/channels of your local region. The operating frequency of AP
would change automatically depends on the working range of PC card.
Here are the allocation of frequency G

CH01 2417MHz ~ CH11 2462MHZ (North America/FCC), for


example, type 1,2 in the field of regulatory domain.

CH01 2417MHz ~ CH13 2472MHZ (ETSI), for example, type 3 in


the field of regulatory domain.

CH10 2457MHz ~ CH11 2462MHZ (Spain), for example, type 4 in


the field of regulatory domain.

32

2.
3.

4.

5.

6.
7.

8.

9.

CH10 2457MHz ~ CH13 2472MHZ (France), for example, type 5 in


the field of regulatory domain.
CH01 2417MHz ~ CH14 2484MHZ (Japan), for example, type 6,7 in
the field of regulatory domain.

Channel G
Each regulatory domain has its own channel allocation. The
default channel number is 10 for each regulatory domain.
RTS Threshold G
RTS stands for request to send. The threshold means the
number of bytes for enabling the RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame
size larger than this value will perform RTS/CTS handshake. The maximum
value of MSDU (MAC service data unit) is 2432. Enter a value between 0
and 2432.
Frag. Threshold G
.Frag. stands for fragmentation. Data will be transmitted
in fragments with its size not exceeding this value. The frag. threshold shall
never less than 256. Enter a value between 256 and 2432.
SSID G
SSID stands for service set identification. The SSID identifies the
service set the station is to connect to. The wireless client associating to the
Access Point must have the same SSID. The default value is IEEE802.11.
Station Name G
The name of the Access Point.
WEP G
WEP stands for wired equivalent privacy which is to prevent
unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the
network. Disabling the WEP function allows wireless adapters to
communicate with the Access Points without any data encryption. Please
notice that though the WEP is functional at 5.5 and 11 Mb/s, there is
significant performance degradation when using WEP at these rates.
Default Key G
This allows you to select one WEP key as an active key to
encrypt wireless data transmission. There are four values of the default
keys.
Key 1 to Key 4 G
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data
from being eavesdropped by unauthorized wireless users. The values must
be set up exactly the same on the Access Point as they are on the wireless
client stations. Enter ten hexadecimal digits (which is any combination of 09, a-f, or A-F). The operating procedures of WEP encryption are described
in WEP function.

4-1-5 WEP
1.

Select Advance Config


Wireless LAN. In the Wireless LAN window,
enable the WEP function, and select the Default key as 1(for example).

33

2.

3.

4.

There are four default keys, each of which has 10 bits. In the field of key1,
key in encryption bits, for example, 11,11,11,11,11. In the field of key2, key
in 22,22,22,22,22. In the field of key3, key in 33,33,33,33,33. In the field of
key4, key in 44,44,44,44,44. After that, click the Finish button to complete
the modification of this page.
Select Utility -->Save & Restart. Click the SAVE button to save the
changes to the AP. Then click the Back button to return to the Save &
Restart window again. Click the RESTART button to take effect the
changes.
If user enables the WEP function in AP, the data of wireless station also
need to be encrypted. Open the Configuration Utility and tab to
Encryption. In the encryption, select the WEP to 40 bits. Choose Manual
Entry and key in the same 40 encryption bits as we set in Access Point. The
default TX key is also set to 1. After that, press the APPLY button and then
press the OK button. If success, the user can ping the IP address of AP
successfully and browser the web page of AP.

4-1-6 Software Upgrade


SL-2011 AP supports firmware upgrade function. The users can
download or upgrade the latest version of AP firmware. The first thing
we need to do is to establish a TFTP server. The TFTP server has a file
which is the latest version of AP firmware. Users can upgrade the newly
firmware via LAN or WLAN, only if we can ping remote TFTP server
which resides in LAN or WLAN successfully. The configuration steps are
given as follows:
1.

2.

Select Utility -->Software Upgrade. In the Software Upgrade window,


enter the correct IP address of the TFTP server IP address ( for example,
192.168.1.100), and make sure the Upgrade filename is also the correct
one.
Press OK button to start the firmware upgrade. As soon as the firmware
upgrade has finished, the Access Point would restart, and the settings of
Access Point would change to factory default.
