Chapter 1 Getting Started

Introduction

Each Zebra mobile computer has a wireless local area network (WLAN) interface. This WLAN interface is managed either by Fusion Wireless Companion or Windows Wireless Zero Config (WZC) application. The software allows the user to configure and control the wireless radio in order to securely connect to the WLAN infrastructure. This guide enables the user to configure the mobile computer so that it can connect properly to a WLAN. This guide describes how to use the Fusion software.
NOTE Fusion 3.20 does not support Zebra Value Added features.
The following Fusion 3.00 features are not supported in Fusion 3.20:
WZC mode only supports a limited number of Fusion applications.

Configuring the Infrastructure

WLANs allow mobile computers to communicate wirelessly. Before using the mobile computer on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required hardware to run the WLAN (sometimes known as infrastructure). The infrastructure and the mobile computer must both be properly configured to enable this communication.
Refer to the documentation provided with the infrastructure (access points (APs), access ports, switches, Radius servers, etc.) for instructions on how to set up the infrastructure.
Once you have set up the infrastructure to enforce your chosen WLAN security scheme, use the Fusion or WZC software to configure the mobile computer to match.

Fusion Overview

The Fusion software contains applications with which to create wireless profiles. Each profile specifies the security parameters to use for connecting to a particular WLAN as identified by its ESSID. The Fusion software also allows the user to control which profile out of a set of profiles is used to connect. Other Fusion applications allow the user to monitor the status of the current WLAN connection and to invoke diagnostic tools for troubleshooting.

Profile Roaming

Profile Roaming attempts to automatically select and connect to a profile from the profile list displayed in the Manage Profiles window. The Profile Roaming algorithm uses the order of the profiles in the profile list to determine the order in which profiles are tried.
NOTE Profile Roaming must be enabled in the Options application. See Chapter 7, Options.
The Profile Roaming algorithm makes two passes through the profile list. The first pass attempts to connect only to profiles that specify ESSIDs that can be detected by the wireless radio. If no connection is made, a second pass through the list is performed attempting to connect to those profiles that were not tried in the first pass. The Profile
Manage Profiles Application 3 - 5
Roaming algorithm will only attempt to connect to a profile for which it is not necessary to prompt the user for credentials (i.e., username and password). This includes:
•
A profile that does not require credentials.
•
A device profile. A device profile is one in which the username and password have been pre-entered directly into the profile. (A profile with the username specified but with the password field left empty is still considered a device profile since an empty password is considered a valid password.)
•
A user profile with cached credentials. A user profile is one in which the username and password have not been pre-entered into the profile. A profile has cached credentials if the user has entered credentials for the profile via the Network Login dialog. When a profile has cached credentials, the user is said to have logged on to the profile. See Chapter 10, Log On/Off Application for more information.
The Profile Roaming algorithm will not attempt to connect to:
•
A profile that specifies EAP-GTC for its Tunnel Authentication Type and Token (as opposed to Static) for its password type. See Tunneled Authentication on page 4-5 for more information.
•
A user profile without cached credentials.
•
A user profile that has cached credentials but that also has the At-Connect option enabled. See Credential
Cache Options on page 4-13 for more information.
•
A device profile that has cached credentials because the user has logged on to it (called a user-override profile), but that also has the At-Connect option enabled.
•
A profile that has been disabled.
•
A profile that has been cancelled.
•
A profile whose Country setting does not allow the profile to be used in the country in which the mobile computer is being operated. See Operating Mode on page 4-2 for more information.
The Profile Roaming algorithm is invoked whenever the mobile computer becomes disconnected (disassociated) from the current WLAN.
Chapter 4 Profile Editor Wizard

Introduction

NOTE Profile Editor Wizard is available only when Fusion Manages WLAN is enabled in the Options application.

Use the Profile Editor Wizard to create a new WLAN profile or edit an existing profile. If editing a profile, the fields reflect the current settings for that profile. If creating a new profile, default values appear in the fields.

Navigate through the wizard using the Next and Back buttons. An indicator in the bottom left corner tracks the number of pages traversed and total number of pages required to complete the current profile configuration. Tap X or the Cancel button to quit. On the confirmation dialog box, tap No to return to the wizard or tap Yes to quit and return to the Manage Profiles window.

Authentication
DescriptionPEAP TTLS EAP-FAST
CHAP X Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is one of
the two main authentication protocols used to verify the user name and password for Point-to-Point (PPP) Internet connections. CHAP is more secure than Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) because it performs a three way handshake during the initial link establishment between the home and remote machines. It can also repeat the authentication anytime after the link is established.
EAP-GTC X X Extensible Authentication Protocol-Generic Token Card
(EAP-GTC) is used during phase 2 of the authentication process. This method uses a time-synchronized hardware or software token generator, often in conjunction with a user PIN, to create a one-time password.
MD5 X Message Digest-5 (MD5) is an authentication algorithm
developed by RSA. MD5 generates a 128-bit message digest using a 128-bit key, IPSec truncates the message digest to 96 bits.
MS CHAP X Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (MS
CHAP) is an implementation of the CHAP protocol that Microsoft created to authenticate remote Windows workstations. MS CHAP is identical to CHAP, except that MS CHAP is based on the encryption and hashing algorithms used by Windows networks, and the MS CHAP response to a challenge is in a format optimized for compatibility with Windows operating systems.

version 2 (MS CHAP v2) is a password-based, challenge-response, mutual authentication protocol that uses the industry-standard Message Digest 4 (MD4) and Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithms to encrypt responses. The authenticating server challenges the access client and the access client challenges the authenticating server. If either challenge is not correctly answered, the connection is rejected. MS CHAP v2 was originally designed by Microsoft as a PPP authentication protocol to provide better protection for dial-up and virtual private network (VPN) connections. With Windows XP SP1, Windows XP SP2, Windows Server 2003, and Windows 2000 SP4, MS CHAP v2 is also an EAP type.

PAP is also more vulnerable to attack because it sends authentication packets throughout the network. Nevertheless, PAP is more commonly used than CHAP to log in to a remote host like an Internet service provider.
TLS X X EAP-TLS is used during phase 2 of the authentication process.

Server Certificate Installation

NOTE Server Certificates can also be installed using the Manage Certificates Application. See Chapter 5, Manage

A server certificate can only be installed from either a .cer file or a .pfx file that has been loaded onto the device. The certificate file can be loaded either manually or via a web-browser-based interface to the Certificate Authority (CA).
NOTE To successfully install a server certificate from a CA using a web-browser, the mobile computer must already

User Name

The user name and password can optionally be entered when the profile is created (called a device profile) or they can be left empty (called a user profile). If the username and password are not entered in the profile, then when attempting to connect, the user will be prompted to supply them. The entered information (credentials) will be saved (cached) for future reconnections.
Whether a profile is a device or a user profile affects how the profile is treated during a Profile Roaming operation (see Profile Roaming on page 3-4). Profiles are excluded from profile roaming consideration if they require user entry of credential information.
If the profile uses an authentication tunnel type of EAP-GTC and Token is selected (see Encryption on page 4-16), then you can control certain behavior by whether you choose to enter a value in the Enter User Name field. If you enter a value in the Enter User Name field, then whenever the Fusion software prompts you to enter credentials, the username field in the interactive credential dialog will be initialized with the value that you entered when you created the profile. If you enter a different value in the username field of the interactive credential dialog, it is cached and used to initialize the username field the next time the interactive credential dialog is shown for that profile. If you do not enter a value in the Enter User Name field when you create an EAP-GTC token profile, then the username field in the interactive credential dialog is initialized to blank. After you enter a username in the interactive credential dialog, it is cached as usual, but it is not be used to initialize the username field the next time the interactive credential dialog is shown for that profile; the username field will still be initialized to blank. In summary, the user can control whether the username field in the interactive credential dialog box is initialized, either with the last-interactively-entered username for that profile or with the username entered into the profile, by whether any value is entered in the Enter User Name field during profile entry.

Figure 4-18
Two radio buttons are added to allow the user to choose a token or static password.
Choose the Token radio button when using the profile in conjunction with a token generator (hardware or software). The system administrator should supply the user with a token generator for use with EAP-GTC token profiles. A token generator generates a numeric value that is entered into the password field at connect time, usually along with a PIN. Tokens have a very limited lifetime and usually expire within 60 seconds. The token generator is time-synchronized with a token server. When authenticating, the RADIUS server asks the token server to verify the token entered. The token server knows what value the token generator generates given the time of day and the username. Since tokens expire, EAP-GTC token profiles are treated differently. A prompt appears at

Advanced Identity

Use the Advanced ID dialog box to enter the 802.1x identity to supply to the authenticator. This value can be 63 characters long and is case sensitive. For TTLS,EAP-FAST, and PEAP authentication types, it is recommended entering the identity anonymous (rather than a true identity). You can optionally enter a fully qualified domain (e.g., mydomain.local) and it will automatically be combined with the 802.1x identity (i.e., anonymous@mydomain.local) before being sent to the RADIUS server.
Entering an 802.11x Identity is required before proceeding.

Credential Cache Options

When connecting to a password-based user profile for the first time, Fusion will prompt the user to enter credentials. After the credentials have been entered, they are cached. These cached credentials will normally be used, without prompting the user, whenever Fusion reconnects to that profile, The credential caching options allow the administrator to specify additional circumstances under which Fusion will prompt the user to re-enter the credentials even though it already has cached credentials for the given profile. Requiring the user to re-enter credentials can help ensure that only an authorized user is using the device.
The credential caching options are at connection, on each resume, or at a specified time.

You are allowed to set the options for a device profile so that they will have an effect if you convert the profile to a user-override profile by logging on to it using the Log On/Off command.
If the mobile computer does not have the credentials, a username and password must be entered. If the mobile computer has the credentials (previous entered via a login dialog box), it uses these credentials unless the caching options require the mobile computer to prompt for new credentials. If credentials were entered via the profile, the mobile computer does not prompt for new credentials (except for profiles where the credentials expire, such as EAP-GTC token profiles). Table 4-7 lists the caching options.

If the infrastructure has implemented a fast reconnect technology such as Fast Session Resume, or PMKID caching then selecting this option will prevent that technology from working properly by prompting the user for credentials when attempting to reconnect.
On Resume Select this option to cause an authenticated user to be reauthenticated when a
suspend/resume occurs. The mobile computer uses the cached credentials to authenticate. Once authenticated, the user is prompted for credentials. If the user does not enter matching credentials within three attempts, the user is disconnected from the network. This option only applies when the user has previously entered credentials.
If the infrastructure has implemented a fast reconnect technology such as Fast Session Resume, or PMKID caching then selecting this option will prevent that technology from working properly by prompting the user for credentials when attempting to reconnect.
At Time Select this option to perform a local verification on an authenticated user at a specified
time. The time can be an absolute time or a relative time from the authentication, and should be in at least five minute intervals. Once the time has passed, the user is prompted for credentials. If the user does not enter the same credentials that were entered prior to the At-Time event within three attempts, the user is disconnected from the network. This option only applies when the user has previously entered credentials.

Static IP Address Entry Fields
Field Description
IPv4 Address The Internet is a collection of networks with users that communicate with each other. Each
communication carries the address of the source and destination networks and the particular machine within the network associated with the user or host computer at each end. This address is called the IP address (Internet Protocol address). Each node on the IP network must be assigned a unique IP address that is made up of a network identifier and a host identifier. Enter the IP address as a dotted-decimal notation with the decimal value of each octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.
Subnet Mask Most TCP/IP networks use subnets to manage routed IP addresses. All IP addresses have a
network part and a host part. The network part specifies a physical network. The host part specifies a host on that physical network. The subnet mask allows a network administrator to use some of the bits that are normally used to specify the host to instead specify physical sub-networks within an organization. This helps organize and simplify routing between physical networks.
Gateway The default gateway forwards IP packets to and from a remote destination.

Field Description
CAM Continuous Aware Mode (CAM) provides the best network performance, but
yields the shortest battery life.
Fast Power Save Fast Power Save (the default) yields much better battery life than CAM, but with
some degradation in network performance.
MAX Power Save Max Power Save yields the longest battery life, but with potentially more
degradation in network performance. However, in networks with minimal latency, MAX Power Save can yield the same network performance as Fast Power Save.
When the AP that the mobile computer associates to is configured to use WMM Power Save mode, the mobile computer will ignore the Battery Usage Mode setting – assuming it’s not set to CAM – and will use the WMM protocol instead. While the use of WMM Power Save mode can maximize battery life, it can also decrease network performance.
NOTE WMM Power Save mode will override Fast Power Save and MAX Power Save mode and cannot be disabled.

Import certificates from either files or from a server machine:
•
.CER file - DER encrypted Root/Server certificates.
NOTE In order to validate a server certificate for an Intermediate CA during authentication, it is only necessary to
import the certificate from the associated Root CA and then specify the Root CA in the profile.
•
.PFX file - Personal inFormation eXchange formatted file containing one or more Root/Server and/or User/Client Certificates. These files are usually protected by a password, so a password will be prompted for. If there is no password, enter nothing and select the OK button.
•
Server - User/Client certificates can be requested directly from a Certificate Authority (CA) on the network. A User name, Password (optional), and the Server (an IP address) must be provided to obtain a certificate for the User from the CA.
NOTE It is possible to import and successfully use a user certificate issued by an Intermediate CA; however, this may
require additional infrastructure setup. For example, it may be necessary to supply the RADIUS server with certificates for both the Intermediate CA and for the Root CA. Infrastructure setup is beyond the scope of this guide.

Chapter 10 Log On/Off Application

Introduction

NOTE Log On/Off application is available only when Fusion Manages WLAN is enabled in the Options application.
There are two ways a user can connect to a profile when the profile requires credentials: either by using the Manage Profiles window, or by using the Network Login application. In the first case, Fusion automatically launches the Network Login window to allow the user to enter credentials when they are needed. In the second case, the user explicitly launches the Network Login window and supplies the credentials ahead of time and then tells the system to use them to connect. In either case, once the user has given the credentials, the user is said to have logged on (or in) to the profile. When the user has logged on to a profile, the system saves those credentials and the profile is said to have cached credentials.
When the user launches the Network Login application, the mobile computer may be in one of two states; the user may be logged onto one or more profiles, by having already entered credentials through the login window, or the user is not logged on to any profile. Each of these states has a separate set of use cases and a different look to the dialog box.
Figure 10-1
Network Login In Window
10 - 2 Wireless Fusion Enterprise Mobility Suite User Guide

Logging On

If not already logged on to any profile, the user can launch the Network Login window in order to select a profile to log on to.
If already logged into one or more profiles, the user can launch the Network Login window to perform any of these functions:
•
Connect to a different profile.
•
Connect to and re-enable a cancelled profile. To do this:
• Launch the Network Login window.
• Select the cancelled profile from the Wireless Profile drop-down list.
• Login to the profile.
NOTE A cancelled profile can also be re-enabled by using the Manage Profile window to connect to the cancelled
profile.
•
Log off from all profiles simultaneously to prevent another user from accessing the current users network privileges.
•
Switch mobile computer users.This is equivalent to performing a log off followed by a log on.
The appearance of the Network Login dialog box varies if it is:
•
Launched by Fusion, because the service is connecting to a new profile that needs credentials.
•
Launched by Fusion, because the service is trying to verify the credentials due to credential caching rules.
•
Launched by a user, when a user is logged in.
•
Launched by a user, when no user is logged in

Logging Off

The user can log off from all profiles simultaneously by launching the Network Login window and tapping the Log Off button. The Log Off button only displays when a user has cached credentials for one or more profiles. When the Log Off button is selected, the user is prompted with three options: Log Off, Switch Users, and Cancel. Switching users logs off the current user and re-initialize the Network Login window to be displayed for when there is no user logged on. Logging off logs off the current user from all profiles and closes the login dialog box. Tapping Cancel closes the Log Off dialog box and returns to the Login dialog box.
When the user is logged off, the mobile computer only roams to profiles that do not require credentials or to profiles that were created with the credentials entered into the profile.
Tap the Cancel button to close the Network Login window without logging into the network. If the Network Login window was launched by Fusion and not by the user, tapping Cancel first causes a message box to display a warning that the cancel will disable the current profile. If the user still chooses to cancel the login at this point, the profile is cancelled.
Once a profile is cancelled, the profile is suppressed until a user actively re-connects to it.
NOTE Entering credentials applies the credentials to a particular profile. Logging out clears all cached credentials.
Editing a profile clears any cached credentials for that profile.

Chapter 11 Persistence

Introduction

As you configure the Fusion settings (i.e., profiles, options, user and root certificates, and PACs), they are saved either in the Microsoft registry or in files in the file system. This allows the Fusion settings to persist across a warm boot. However, the registry and the volatile parts of the file system are lost after a cold boot on Windows CE devices and after a clean boot on Windows Mobile devices. So that the Fusion settings won’t be lost, Fusion provides a mechanism for persisting the Fusion settings across a clean/cold boot, Part of this mechanism is automatically implemented by Fusion, and part of it must be performed manually by the user.
This chapter discusses how to:
•
make sure your Fusion settings, persist across a clean/cold boot.
•
return the Fusion settings to their factory default values.

Persisting Fusion Settings

The Fusion settings that are saved in the registry include:
•
Profiles.
•
Options.
The Fusion settings that are saved in the file system include:
•
User certificates.
•
Root (server) certificates.
•
PACs.
Fusion automatically persists user certificates, root certificates imported from .pfx files, and PACs. This data is stored in files in subfolders of the Application folder. The Application folder is part of the non-volatile file system and is not lost on a clean/cold boot. After the clean/cold boot, Fusion automatically reads the data back in from the files that have been saved under the Application folder and restores the settings.
Fusion relies on the user to help manually with persistence for profiles, options, and root certificates that are imported from .cer files. Since the profiles and options are stored in the registry, the user must export them to files
11 - 2 Wireless Fusion Enterprise Mobility Suite User Guide
under the Application folder before performing the clean/cold boot. You can use the Export function from the Options application. See xxx. When you import a root certificate from a .cer file, place the .cer file in \Application\RootCerts. This allows Fusion to find the .cer file after a clean/cold boot and re-install the root cert that it contains.
When you install a user certificate, be sure to install it either through the Profile Editor Wizard or through the Fusion Certificate Manager application. THis allows Fusion to automatically save the data for the user certificate in a special format to files in the Application\UserCerts folder.

Returning to Factory Default Settings

To return the Fusion settings to their factory default values, you must remove all files in which the Fusion settings are stored. Delete the following files from the mobile computer:
•
The file that stores your Fusion profiles. This file will have been created manually and is usually named \Application\WCS_PROFILES.REG.
•
The file that stores your Fusion option settings. This file will have been created manually and is usually named \Application\WCS_OPTIONS.REG.
•
All files in \Application\RootCerts. For backward compatibility with previous versions, Fusion also searches, after a clean/cold boot, in \Application for persisted root certificates stored in files with the extension .cer. If you have manually placed any .cer files in \Application, remove them as well,
•
All files in \Application\UserCerts.
•
All files in \Application\Pacstore.
After you delete the files specified above, perform the clean/cold boot. The Fusion settings should be restored to their factory default values.
Chapter 12 Registry Controlled Features
This chapter is devoted to features of Fusion that can be turned on and off but do not have a standard Fusion user interface. Instead, these features are controlled by registry settings, and can be very useful. The following is a list of features that are described in this chapter:
•
NPCS.

NPCS

Network Policy Configuration Service (NPCS) is a Microsoft feature. As far as Fusion is concerned it makes a decision as to whether or not Fusion should be disabled. The logic used to determine this is to apply a wireless LAN policy on the mobile computer using Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Device Management (DM). This policy, when applied, modifies a registry key to indicate whether or not Fusion should be disabled.
If the registry key is set then:
•
The wireless radio must be powered off;
•
Users must not be able to scan or connect to WLAN access points.
•
Users must not be able to send or receive data over a WLAN.
•
WLAN-related UI must be disabled, hidden or grayed out.
•
If the wireless LAN stack exposes any WLAN API’s for third party applications they must be disabled.
A WLAN can be re-enabled if the registry key is properly modified.
The registry key monitored is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\NetworkPolicy\WiFi]
Edit the following key:
“Disabled”=dword:0
where:
dword:0 (or key not present) = disabled. Allow WLAN to function normally.
dword:1 (or greater) = enabled. Enforce the policy by disabling the radio and all the WLAN related User Interfaces.
