## Access Control List

## ACL Mode

Description | How to use the Access Control List (ACL): "Disabled" disables the Access Control List. "Enabled" causes stations in the list with "Allowed" attribute set to "No" to be rejected when attempting to associate with the Access Point. "Strict" allows stations that are in the list with "Allowed" attribute set to "Yes" to associate with the Access Point, but only using the WEP mapping as indicated. The WEP mapping is only supported for 802.11a clients. For 802.11b clients, only allow and deny are applied, regardless of the WEP mapping.
Valid Range | Enabled, Disabled, Strict.

### Access Control List

Each entry is a station identified by its MAC address. The station has two attributes: "Allowed" and "WEP map". The user may select one or more entries of this list to be deleted by pressing the "Delete" button.

### Allowed

Description | The meaning of this attribute depends on the setting for "ACL Mode", as follows: If "ACL Mode" is set to "Strict", and "Allowed" is set to "Yes", this indicates that the station is allowed to associate with the Access Point, but only with WEP mapping as indicated. All other stations are disallowed to associate with the Access Point. . The WEP mapping is only supported for 802.11a clients. For 802.11b clients, only allow and deny are applied, regardless of the WEP mapping. If "ACL Mode" is set to "Enabled", and "Allowed" is set to "No", this station is not allowed to associate with the Access Point (WEP mapping does not matter). All other stations are allowed to associate with the Access Point.
Valid Range | Yes, No.

### WEP Map

Description | Indicates how the station uses WEP keys. If "Allowed" attribute is set "No", then "WEP map" is set "d (default)", i.e. it doesn't matter.
Valid Range | 1 (WEP Key 1), 2 (WEP Key 2), 3 (WEP Key 3), 4 (WEP Key 4), d (default WEP Key).

## Authentication

This page has two type of settings:

- Global
- Per server

- Exch. Timeout edit control
- Add Server button

Default values of global settings can be restored by pressing “Restore Default Configuration” button of “Configuration” page.

### Per Server Settings

The management page may present the settings of zero or more authentication servers. The first server is the primary server, while the others are secondary servers (used for backup if the primary server does not perform a complete authentication).

The following are per server settings:

- Server Name /IP edit control
- Shared Secret edit control
- Port edit control
- Retry Timeout edit control
- Retry Limit edit control
- Failover Time edit control
- Failover Timer edit control
- Delete button

Default values of per server settings cannot be restored by pressing “Restore Default Configuration” button of “Configuration” page.

### Enable Authentication

#### Description | If “No” button is pressed (and applied), then: The AP will not perform the 1X authentication. Settings of “Radio 802.11a/b Setup” and “WEP Settings 802.11a/b” are not affected.. If “Yes” radio button is pressed, then: This button stays selected when “Apply” button is pressed if the following condition is met: In “WEP Settings 802.11a/b”, “Default WEP Key” indicates a key which has been already defined. Consequently, in “WEP Settings 802.11a/b”page, “WEP (Privacy)” will be set “Enabled” (if not already), and in “Radio 802.11a/b Setup” page, “Authentication Type” will be set “Open”. If the condition mentioned above is not met, the button will not stay selected when “Apply” is pressed – i.e. “No” button will be selected.

#### Valid range | 2..4320 minutes (72 hours).
Default | 2 minutes.

### Exch. Timeout

#### Description | It indicates how long a client station can take over authentication. If the authentication process is not completed within this period of time, the authentication is failed and the station is disassociated.

### Add Server

This button allows the user to add a new authentication server to the management page. The user has to fill in the server settings.

### Failover Timer

Description | The content of the failover count down timer as existing when the page is accessed. It indicates how long the AP will wait before trying once again to communicate with a failed RADIUS server (i.e. a server which failed to complete the authentication process). This timer is exposed to the user so that the user can determine whether a server is in failover mode and if it is, how long is left before the server will be used once more. The user can also write to this count to either initiate, shorten or terminate a failover.
