NXA-WAP250G 802.11b/g Wireless Access Point
 Shared authentication mode is less secure than Open due to the unencrypted / encrypted
string handshake.
 Only one SSID can use Shared authentication.
 Key Source: Select Static config or Dynamic from Radius. Static config is for use with WEP,
Dynamic from Radius is for use with WPA. This option is automatically selected when you
select a specific security.
 Key Type: Select the preferred method of entering WEP encryption keys on the WAP-250G.
 Hexadecimal: Enter keys as hexadecimal digits (0 to 9 and A to F). This is
recommended to match AMX equipment settings.
 Alphanumeric: Enter keys as alphanumeric characters.
 Setting Key: Sets WEP key values for one or two keys. At least one key must be specified.
Each WEP key has an index number. There are four WEP keys shared by both VAP #1 and
VAP #2. Any changes on VAP #1 affect VAP #2. The selected key is used for authentication
and encryption on the VAP interface.
Enter key values that match the key type and length settings. Select 64 Bit, 128 Bit, or 152 Bit
key length. Note that the same size of encryption key must be supported on all wireless clients
(default: 64 Bit).
 64 Bit: Enter keys as 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal digits (0 to 9 and
A to F).
 128 Bit: Enter keys as 13 alphanumeric characters or 26 hexadecimal digits.
 152 Bit: Enter keys as 16 alphanumeric characters or 32 hexadecimal digits.
Although an access point can use the EAP method to authenticate a wireless client
device, an access point cannot use EAP to authenticate another access point. In
other words, bridges must authenticate each other using either Open or Shared
authentication methods.
All WEP settings can be entered prior to saving.
AMX wireless Touch Panels do not support 152-bit keys.
Key index and type must match that configured on all clients.
