Section 4 - Managing the Access Point
Field Description
Redirect Mode Enable the HTTP redirect feature to redirect wireless clients to a custom Web page.
When redirect mode is enabled, the user will be redirected to the URL you specify after the
wireless client associates with an AP and the user opens a Web browser on the client to
access the Internet.
The custom Web page must be located on an external Web server and might contain
information such as the company logo and network usage policy.
Note: The wireless client is redirected to the external Web server only once while it is
associated with the AP.
Redirect URL Specify the URL where the Web browser is to be redirected after the wireless client
associates with the AP and sends HTTP trafc.
Table 22 - Virtual Access Point Settings
Note: After you congure the VAP settings, you must click Apply to apply the changes and to save
the settings. Changing some settings might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes. If
this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change
AP settings when WLAN trafc is low.
None (Plain-text)
If you select None as your security mode, no further options are congurable on the AP. This mode means that
any data transferred to and from the UAP is not encrypted. This security mode can be useful during initial network
conguration or for problem solving, but it is not recommended for regular use on the Internal network because it is
not secure.
Static WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a data encryption protocol for 802.11 wireless networks. All wireless stations and
APs on the network are congured with a static 64-bit (40-bit secret key + 24-bit initialization vector (IV)) or 128-bit
(104-bit secret key + 24-bit IV) Shared Key for data encryption.
Static WEP is not the most secure mode available, but it offers more protection than setting the security mode to None
(Plain-text) as it does prevent an outsider from easily snifng out unencrypted wireless trafc.
WEP encrypts data moving across the wireless network based on a static key. (The encryption algorithm is a stream
cipher called RC4.)

Field Description
Transfer Key Index Select a key index from the drop-down menu. Key indexes 1 through 4 are available. The
default is 1.
The Transfer Key Index indicates which WEP key the AP will use to encrypt the data it
transmits.
Key Length Specify the length of the key by clicking one of the radio buttons:
•) 64 bits
•) 128 bits
