Before You Begin: Understanding Wireless
Security
Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, so homes with high-speed
Internet access are adopting them at a rapid pace. Because wireless networking
operates by sending information over radio waves, it can be more vulnerable to
intruders than a traditional wired network. Like signals from your cellular or
cordless phones, signals from your wireless network can also be intercepted.
Because you cannot physically prevent someone from connecting to your
wireless network, you need to take some additional steps to keep your network
secure.
NOTE The Setup Wizard guides you through the process of completing the tasks that are
described below. You are strongly encouraged to use the Setup Wizard for initial
configuration of the WRP400.
Change the Default Wireless Network Name or SSID
Wireless devices have a default wireless network name or Service Set Identifier
(SSID) set by the factory. This is the name of your wireless network, and can be up
to 32 characters in length. To distinguish your wireless network from other
wireless networks that may exist around you, you should change the default
wireless network name to something easily recognizable, but do not use personal
information (such as your Social Security number) because this information may
be available for anyone to see when browsing for wireless networks. For more
information, see “Wireless > Basic Wireless Settings,” on page 51.
Cisco WRP400 User Guide 16
Before You Begin: Understanding Wireless Security
Change the Default Router Password
Change the Default Router Password
When you connect to the administration web server, you will be asked for a
password. The WRP400 has a default password set by the factory. The default
password is admin. Hackers know the defaults and may try to use them to access
your wireless device and change your network settings. To prevent unauthorized
access, change the password to one that is hard to guess. For more information,
see “Administration > Management,” on page 88.
Enable MAC Address Filtering for Wireless Access
The Cisco WRP400 gives you the ability to enable Media Access Control (MAC)
address filtering. The MAC address is a unique series of numbers and letters
assigned to every networking device. With MAC address filtering enabled,
wireless network access is provided solely for wireless devices with specific
MAC addresses. For example, you can specify the MAC address of each
computer in your home so that only those computers can access your wireless
network. For more information, see “Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter,” on
page 62.
2
Enable Encryption
Encryption protects data transmitted over a wireless network. Wi-Fi Protected
Access (WPA/WPA2) and Wired Equivalency Privacy (WEP) offer different levels
of security for wireless communication.
A network encrypted with WPA/WPA2 is more secure than a network encrypted
with WEP, because WPA/WPA2 uses dynamic key encryption. To protect the
information as it passes over the airwaves, you should enable the highest level of
encryption supported by your network equipment.
WEP is an older encryption standard and may be the only option available on
some older devices that do not support WPA.
For more information, see “Wireless > Wireless Security,” on page 56.
Cisco WRP400 User Guide 17
Before You Begin: Understanding Wireless Security
General Network Security Guidelines
General Network Security Guidelines
Wireless network security is effective only when combined with good network
security practices.
• Password protect all computers on the network and individually password
protect sensitive files.
• Change passwords on a regular basis.
• Install anti-virus software and personal firewall software.
• Disable file sharing (peer-to-peer). Some applications may open file sharing
without your consent and/or knowledge.
2
Additional Security Tips
To help prevent security problems, follow these guidelines:
• Keep wireless routers, access points, or gateways away from exterior walls
and windows.
• Turn wireless routers, access points, or gateways off when they are not
being used (at night, during vacations).
• Use strong passphrases that are at least eight characters in length.
Combine letters and numbers to avoid using standard words that can be
found in the dictionary.
