Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.

Chapter 1 – Introduction
Thank you for choosing BROWAN BW1230 SMB Wireless Router. You could have the better and easier wireless network with a
series of BROWAN’s products.
Product Overview
The
BW1230 SMB Wireless Router
provide a high-speed, secure, affordable and easy-to-use wireless LAN solution that combines the flexibility of wireless networking
and services required in Small Medium Business networks.
is an integrated router,
IEEE 802.11g
wireless access point, four-port switch, and firewall to
Shared and Rapid Connectivity
The BW1230 is designed in an attractive, compact plastic enclosure, with cutting-edge RF technology, providing shared Internet
access for wireless and wired users within robust wireless network in offices or similar RF environments. The BW1230 not only
supports either local power supply or inline Power-over-Ethernet (optional) but also keeps full backward compatibility with legacy
802.11b devices to ensure interoperability with all IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b client devices, extending the security, scalability,
reliability, ease of deployment, and manageability available in wired networks to the wireless LAN.
BROWAN COMMUNICATIONS Page 18
Sophisticated Firewall and Advanced Security
Integrated with sophisticated firewall functionalities including a stateful packet inspection firewall, hacker pattern detection, IP and
MAC address filtering and other security features help protect the entire enterprise network from attacks and other Internet security
risks. In addition, the advanced wireless security offers a strong level of protection for the wireless connection by 128-bit enhanced
encryption (Wireless Protected Access) with TKIP/AES encryption for better security, along with 64/128-bits static and dynamic
WEP encryption for legacy clients.
Virtual AP technology
BW1230 supports multiple BSSIDs, so-called Virtual AP which delivers multiple services from one piece of hardware. It can create
up to 3 virtual AP with different wireless security settings respectively, allowing different users to access the services they need (e.g.,
guests only get Internet access). It prevents non-authorized users from logging on enterprise network in terms of confidentiality of
company information.
BROWAN COMMUNICATIONS Page 19
stateful packet inspection firewall:
A stateful firewall (any firewall that performs stateful packet inspection or stateful inspection) is a firewall that
keeps track of the state of network connections (such as TCP streams, UDP communication) travelling across it. The
firewall is programmed to distinguish legitimate packets for different types of connections. Only packets matching a
known connection state will be allowed by the firewall; others will be rejected.
TKIP:
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) is a security protocol used in Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA).
TKIP ensures that every data packet is sent with its own unique encryption key.
AES:
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a block cipher adopted as an encryption standard by the U.S. government.
And a block cipher is a symmetric key cipher which operates on fixed-length groups of bits.
