Chapter 1: Introduce
1.1 Introduce
The AirLive WH-5000A is a Secure IEEE 802.11 a/b/g Wireless LAN device and supports three different operating modes:
`
`
`
The WH-5000A is designed as a high security wireless network device. They are with the following cryptographic modules: WEP (64,128or 152 bits),
CCMP
for the bridging mode; and HTTPS/TLS for secure web communication. Moreover, the WH-5000A provides the wireless client MAC address filtering, Rogue AP detection to protect your wireless network.
With support of 802.11 a/b/g standards, the WH-5000A works at 2.4GHz (802.11b/g) and 5GHz (802.11a). Besides with 54Mbps transmit data rate of 802.11 a/g and 11Mbps transmit data rate of
802.11b, the WH-5000A also provides Super G / Turbo A function. (Turbo A mode doesn’t support at ETSI domain region.) the
802.11g Super and 802.11a Turbo technologies provide speed and throughput of more than double standard wireless LAN technologies in networking products. The Maximum link speed available is 108Mbps and the typical depending on application demand and network environment.
The others features are AP load balance, AP layer 2 isolation and Bridge Site Map.
(128 bits)
maximum end-user throughput ranges from approximately 40Mbps to 60+Mbps,

1.2 Wireless Access Point Mode (WAP)
In the wireless access point mode, you can use the AirLive WH-5000A to connect wireless communication devices together to create a wireless network. The AirLive WH-5000A is usually connected to a wired network and can relay data between devices on each side. In Wireless Access Point (WAP) mode the WAN interface has to con- nect to a backbone Ethernet switch in order to operate normally. It bridges the backbone Ethernet network and wireless interface. The following diagram is an example of WAP mode network topology.
There is numerous security methods provided including WEP, WPA (TKIP and AES-CCM) and WPA2 (TKIP and AES-CCM) are The supports EAP-TLS, protocols.

1.3 Wireless Bridging Mode (WDS)
In Wireless Bridging (WDS) mode the WAN interface may or may not need to connect to a backbone Ethernet switch. It depends on needs of infrastructure network. The Wireless Bridging Mode function extends the network from an existing wired network easily without altering the network topology.
The following diagram is an example of WDS mode network topology. This type of infrastructure is
decentralized. needs only transmit as far as the next node. Nodes act as repeaters to transmit data from nearby nodes to peers that are too far away to reach, resulting in a that can span large distances. In bridging mode,

1.4 Wireless Client Mode (STA)
The AirLive WH-5000A can operate as a client device that communicates with a wireless access point. It supports
802.11a/b/g bands. In Wireless Client mode, the WAN interface is NOT design for a backbone network connection. It is the interface for computer connected to it. The following diagram an example of WDS mode network topology.
There is numerous security methods provided in this mode, including WEP, WPA (TKIP and AES-CCM) and WPA2 (TKIP and AES-CCM) are available.

Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).
the For enhanced security, you can enable IEEE 802.1x authentication, which provides authenticated access to

access to network resources and eavesdropping. It provides user and computer identification,
authentication, and dynamic key management. The support that IEEE 802.1x provides for Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) security types allows you to use authentication methods such as smart cards and certificates .Using 802.1x function, you need to install a separate certification system, such as Radius Server, for key management and authentication requires and each client must have been issued
