Manual Ver2.0
QoS (Quality of Service) is a traffic class rule to classify the upstream traf fic, assign
queuing priority and optionally overwrite the IP header TOS byte. This is to ensure
that the delay-sensitive traffic has higher priority to go to Internet. IP Precedence and
IP TOS (Type of Service) marking, once enabled, will overwrite the correspondent
TOS byte in the IP header. These features, along with Differentiated Service
Configuration, are valid only when your ISP has implemented these services.

6.2 Security
Four types of wireless security are provided: Shared (WEP), 802.1x, WPA/WPA2, and
WPA/WPA2-PSK.
6.2.1 WEP
- 46 -
Page 47
Manual Ver2.0
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides security by encrypting data over radio
waves when data is transmitted from one end point to another. WEP is the weakest
security method but the easiest one to configure. To enable WEP, select the
following items step by step:
Network Authentication: Shared
Data Encryption: Enabled
Encryption Strength: 128-bit (recommended for better security) or 64-bit
Four keys for both encryption strengths can be stored here. Enter 13 ASCII
characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit encryption keys. Enter 5 ASCII
characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit encryption keys. Select which key
(1 ~ 4) to use from “Current Network Key”. Click “Save/Apply” to save the
configuration.
Figure 57. Wireless Setup – Security – WEP
6.2.2 802.1X
802.1X addresses the WEP weakness by adding user authentication, via RADIUS
server. So you need to have your RADIUS server up and running before using
802.1X. To enable 802.1X, select “802.1X” in “Network Authentication”. Enter
your RADIUS server IP address, port number (default: 1812), and key. Follow
- 47 -
Page 48
Manual Ver2.0
section 6.2.1 to configure your WEP key and select “Save/Apply” to save your
configuration.
6.2.3 WPA/WPA2
WPA/ WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is the strongest wireless security provided
by NWAR3600. Like 802.1X, WPA must co-work with RADIUS server as well.
To enable WPA/WPA2, select the following items step by step:
Network Authentication: WPA/WP A2
WPA2 Preauthentication: Default: Disabled (WPA2 only)
Network Re-auth Interval: in seconds. Default: 36000 (WPA2 only)
WPA Group Rekey Interval: in seconds. Default: 0 (no re-keying).
RADIUS Server IP Address/Port/Key: must match your RADIUS server.
WPA Encryption: TKIP (select AES or TKIP+AES for WPA2).
Check your supplicant capability before you decide which one to use.

6.2.4 WPA/WPA2-PSK
WPA-PSK lets you take advantage of WPA without the hassle of setting up your
own RADIUS server. To enable WPA-PSK, select “WPA-PSK” in “Network
Authentication”. Enter 8 to 63 ASCII codes or 64 hexadecimal (0~9, A~F) digits
in “WPA Pre-Shared Key”. Click “Save/Apply” to save the configuration.

6.3 MAC Filter
Wireless MAC filter allows you to implement access control based on device’s MAC
address.
When you select “Allow” in “MAC Restrict Mode”, only data from devices with
matching MAC addresses in filter table can access NWAR3600. If you select “Deny”
in “MAC Restrict Mode”, every device can access NWAR3600 except those that have
matching MAC addresses in the filter table. To add filter entry, click on “Add” and
enter the MAC address of NWAR3600. Click “Save/Apply” to save the configuration.
To “delete” the entry, select the entry and click “Remove”.

6.4 Wireless Bridge
Wireless Bridge (also known as Wireless Distribution System) can bridge data
between two APs, which is particularly useful while wired cabling is not available.
Note: only APs running in the same channel can be bridged.
AP Mode: Wireless Bridge- listens and answers other APs only
Access Point- Wireless Bridge also with AP functionality
Bridge Restrict: Disabled- any AP will be granted access
Enabled- only assigned APs (Max. 4) with specified MAC address
Enabled (Scan) - as above, but NWAR3600 will scan available AP
will be granted access
for you to select.
Refresh: re-scan the available AP
Save/Apply: save the configuration

Figure 62. Wireless Setup – Wireless Bridge
In most cases, NWAR3600 work well with wireless default settings. Modification is
not recommended unless you are very familiar with these parameters.
AP Isolation: Separate local PCs from other PCs which have associated to other APs
in the same network. Default: Disabled.
Channel: Select the appropriate channel from the provided list to correspond with
your network settings. All devices in your wireless network must use the
same channel in order to function correctly. Or select “Auto” to allow AP to
decide its operating channel based on current environment. Default: 11.
Auto Channel Timer (min): Expiration time for AP to adjust operating channel.
54g Rate: The range is from 1 to 54Mbps. The data transmission rate should be set
according to the speed of your wireless network. You can set one
transmission speed, or keep the default setting “Auto” to have the router
automatically detect the fastest possible data rate.
Multicast Rate: The range is from 1 to 54Mbps. The data transmission rate of the
multicast packets should be set according to the speed of your
wireless network. You can set one transmission speed, or keep the
default setting “Auto” to have the router automatically detect the
fastest possible data rate.
Basic Rate: Select the basic rate that wireless clients must support.
Fragmentation: This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. The range is
256-2346 bytes. This value specifies the maximum packet size
- 51 -
Page 52
Manual Ver2.0
before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a
high packet error rate, you may slightly lower the Fragmentation
value. Setting the Fragmentation too low may result in poor network
performance. Only slight adjustment of this value is recommended.
RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range is
0-2347 bytes. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only
slight adjustment of this value is recommended. If a network packet
is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS
mechanism will not be enabled. NWAR3600 sends Request to Send
(RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the
transmission of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless
station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge
the right to begin transmission.
DTIM Interval: This value, between 1 and 255 milliseconds, indicates the interval of
the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM interval is
a countdown field which is used to inform clients about the next
window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When
NWAR3600 has buffered broadcast or multicast for associated
clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its
clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and
multicast message. Default: 1.
Beacon Interval: Enter a value between 1 and 65535 milliseconds. The Beacon
Interval indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is
a packet broadcast by NWAR3600 to synchronize the wireless
network. Default: 100.
XPress Technology: Proprietary feature to increase wireless data rate. Must co-work
with client device which supports the same feature. Default:
Disabled.
54g Mode: There are 4 selections. Select 54g Auto for the widest compatibility. Select
54g Performance for the fastest performance. Select 54g LRS if you are
experiencing difficulty with legacy 802.11b equipment. Select 802.11b
only to operate at 802.11b only environment.
54g protection: In Auto mode, NWAR3600 will use RTS/CTS to improve 802.11g
performance in mixed 802.11g/802.11b network. Turn off protection
to maximize 802.11g throughput under most conditions.
Preamble Type: The preamble is used to synchronize the transmitter and receiver and
- 52 -

derives common timing relationship. The Short preamble improves
throughput but not all wireless clients support short preamble type.
Transmit Power: 5-level of transmit power are available: 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%,
and 100%. Default: 100%.
