Chapter 1 Getting Started NWD2105 User’s Guide 19 1.5 Device Applications This section describes some network appl icat ions for the NWD2105. Y ou can either set the network type to Infrastructure and connect to an AP or use Ad-Hoc mode and connect to a peer computer (ano ther wireless devi ce in Ad-Hoc mode).
Chapter 1 Getting Star ted NWD2105 User’s Guide 20 Ad-Hoc T o set up a small independent wire less workgroup without an AP , use Ad-Hoc . Ad-Hoc does not require an AP or a wired ne twork. T wo or more wireless client s communicate directly with each other .
NWD2105 User’s Guide 21 C HAPTER 2 Wireless LANs 2.1 Overview This section provi des background inform ation on wireless Loca l Area Network s. 2.1.1 What Y ou Can Do in This Section • Connect securely to an AP using ma ny of the strongest and most common encryption protocols.
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 22 Encryption The process of taking data and encoding it, usually using a mathematical formula, so that it becomes unreada ble unl ess dec rypted with th e proper code or pass phrase.
Chapter 2 Wirel ess LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 23 • If two wireless networks overl ap, th ey should use a different channel. Like radio stations or television channels , each wireless net work uses a specific channel, or frequency , to send and receive information.
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 24 • Automatic WEP k ey generation based on a “password phr ase” called a passphr ase. The passphrase i s case sensitiv e. Y ou must use the same passphrase for all WLAN adapters wi th this fe ature in the sa me WLAN .
Chapter 2 Wirel ess LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 25 For EAP- TLS authentication type, you must first have a wired connec tion to the network and obtai n the certificate (s) from a certificate authorit y (CA).
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 26 Depending on the de vices you have, you can either press a button (on the device itself , or in its configuration utility) or en ter a PIN (a unique P ersonal Identification Number that allows one device to authen ticate the other) in each of the tw o devices.
Chapter 2 Wirel ess LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 27 When you use the PIN method, you must en ter the PIN from on e device (usually the wireless client) into the second devi ce (usually the Access P oint or wireless router). Then, when WPS is activ ated on th e first de vice, it p resents it s PIN to th e second device.
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 28 The following figure shows a WPS-enab led wi reless c lient (ins talled in a note book computer) connecting to the WPS- enabled AP via the PIN method. Figure 5 Example WPS Process: PIN Method 2.4.3 How WPS W orks When two WPS-enabled devices connect, each device must assume a specific role.
Chapter 2 Wirel ess LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 29 already part of a network, it sends the existing information. If not , it generates the SSID and WP A(2)-PSK randomly . The following figure sh ows a WPS-enable d client (installed in a notebook computer) connecting to a WPS-enabled access point.
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 30 subsequent WPS connections in which it is involv ed. If you want a configured AP to act as an enrollee, y ou must reset it to its f actory defaults. 2.4.3.1 Example WPS Network Setup This section shows how security settings are distri buted in an example WPS setup.
Chapter 2 Wirel ess LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 31 In step 3, you add anot her access point ( AP2 ) to your network. AP2 is out of ran g e of AP1 , so you cannot use AP1 for the WPS handshake with the new access point. However , you know that Client 2 supports the registrar function, so you use it to perform the WPS handshak e instead.
Chapter 2 Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 32 • WPS works only with ot her WPS- enabled devices. However , you can still add non- WPS devices to a network yo u already set up using WPS. WPS works by automatically issuing a r andomly-gener ated WPA -PSK or WPA2- PSK pre-shared key from the registr ar de vice to the enrollee d evices.

NWD2105 User’s Guide 61 A PPENDIX A W ireless LANs This appendix discusses ad-hoc and in frastructure wireless LAN topologies. Ad-hoc Wireless LAN Configuration The simplest WLAN configur ation is an in dependent (Ad-hoc) WLAN that connects a set of computers with wireless adapters (A, B , C).
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 62 BSS A Basic Service Set (BS S) exists when all communications between wireless clients or between a wireless client and a wired network client go through one access point (AP). Intra-BS S traffic is traffic between wirele ss clients in the BS S.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 63 ESS An Extended Service Set (ESS) c onsists of a series of overlapping BS Ss, each containing an access point, with each ac cess point connected together by a wired network. This wired connec tion between AP s is called a Distribution S ystem (DS).
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 64 adjacent AP is using. F or example, if yo ur region has 11 channels and an adjacent AP is using channel 1, then y ou need to select a channel between 6 or 11. RTS/CTS A hidden node occurs when two stations are within r ange of the same access point, but are not within ra nge of each other .
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 65 If the RTS/CTS v alue is greater than the Fragmentation Threshold value (see next), then the RTS (R equest T o Send)/ CTS (Clear to Send) h andshake wi ll never occur as data frames will be fragmented be fore they reach RTS/CTS si ze.
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 66 IEEE 802.1 1g Wireless LAN IEEE 802.11g is fully compatible with th e IEEE 802.11b standard. This means an IEEE 802.11b adapter can interface directly with an IEEE 802.11g acc ess point (and vice versa) at 11 Mbps o r lowe r depe nding on range.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 67 Note: Y ou must enable the same wireless security settings on the NWD2105 and on all wireless clients that you want t o associate with it. IEEE 802.1x In June 2001, the IEEE 802.1x standard w a s designed to extend the features of IEEE 802.
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 68 • Access-R eject Sent by a RADIUS server rejecting access. • Access- Accept Sent by a RADIUS server allo wing access. • Access-Chal lenge Sent by a RADIUS server requesting more information in order to allow access.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 69 EAP-MD5 (Message-Dig est Algorithm 5) MD5 authen tication is the si mplest one-way authentic ation meth od.
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 70 LEAP LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authenticati on Protocol) is a Cisco implementation of IEEE 802.1x. Dynamic WEP Key Exchange The AP maps a unique key that is generated with t he RADIUS server . This key expires when the wireless connection ti me s out, disconnec ts or reauthentication times out.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 71 If both an AP and the wireless clients support WPA2 and you have an external RADIUS server , use WPA2 for stronger data encryption.
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 72 The encryption mech anisms used for WPA(2) and WP A(2)-PSK are the same. The only difference between the two is th at WPA(2)-PSK us es a simple common password, instead of user -specific credentials.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 73 2 The RADIUS server then chec ks the user's identif ication against i ts database and grants or deni es netw ork access accordingly . 3 A 256-bit P airwise Master K ey (PMK) is deri ved from the authentication process by the RADIUS server and the client.
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 74 4 The AP and wireless clients use the TKIP or AES encryption process, the PMK and information exchanged in a handshake to create tempor al encryption keys. They use these keys to encrypt data exchanged between them.
Appendix A Wir eless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 75 Antenna Overview An antenna couples RF signals onto air . A tr ansmitter within a wireless device sends an RF signal to the antenna, whic h propagates the signal through the air . The antenna also operates in reverse by capturing RF signals from the air .
Appendix A Wireless LANs NWD2105 User’s Guide 76 • Omni-directional ante nnas send the RF sign al out in all directions on a horiz ontal plane. The cover age area is torus-sh aped (like a donut) which makes these antennas ideal for a room environment.
