EasyLAN Wireless Quick Start Guide 11
Collecting Information
By default, EasyLAN Wireless is in Infrastructure mode with the
SSID (network name) set to
INTERMEC, DHCP is enabled, and
security is disabled.
You need to collect the following information from your
network administrator:
• What type of wireless network are you using: ad-hoc or
infrastructure? For help, see the illustration on page 5.
• Will EasyLAN Wireless receive its TCP/IP address
automatically? Should you choose Auto, DHCP, BOOTP, or
RARP?
• If you will manually enter the IP address, you also need to
know the subnet mask and default router.
• What is the SSID (network name) of the access point your
EasyLAN Wireless printer will communicate with?
• What type of security will EasyLAN Wireless use?
• Static WEP encryption
• 802.1x security with TTLS
• 802.1x security with LEAP
• WPA-Personal
• WPA-Enterprise
• None
Note: If you choose None, you do not implement a
security solution. Intermec recommends that you
implement a security solution to protect your data
and network.
• If EasyLAN Wireless will use static WEP encryption, you
may need to know these parameters:
• Key strength (WEP 128-bit or WEP 64-bit)
• Values for up to 4 WEP keys (entered in Hex values)
• Active WEP key (1, 2, 3, or 4)
• Authentication (open or shared)
