It specifies the subnet mask assigned by the DHCP server to devices. The default value
is 255.255.255.0.
Gateway Address
It specifies the gateway IP address assigned by the DHCP server to devices. Generally, it
is the LAN IP address of the router connected to the internet. The default value is
192.168.0.1.
Only through a gateway can a LAN device access a server or host which is not in the
local network segment. You are recommended to enter a gateway IP address which can
access the internet. Otherwise, the device in the LAN network cannot access the
internet.
Primary DNS
It specifies the DNS server address provided by your ISP. If you do not know it, please
consult your ISP.
To enable devices to access the internet, set this parameter to a correct DNS server IP

is optional, which indicates you can leave it blank if your ISP does not provide this
parameter.
Lease Time
It specifies the validity period of an IP address assigned by the DHCP server to a device.
By default, it is 1 day.
When half of the lease time has elapsed, the device sends a DHCP request to the DHCP
server to renew the lease time. If the request succeeds, the lease time is extended
based on the request. Otherwise, the device sends a request again when 7/8 of the
lease time has elapsed. If the request succeeds, the lease time is extended based on
the request. Otherwise, the device must request a new IP address from the DHCP
server after the lease time expires.

Parameter description
Parameter
Description
SSID
Select one SSID from the drop-down list menu.
The AP allows you to enable 8 SSIDs on 2.4 GHz band, and 4 SSIDs on 5 GHz band.
Enable
Used to enable or disable the wireless network you selected.
Broadcast SSID
Enable: Nearby wireless clients can detect the SSID.
Disable: Nearby wireless clients cannot detect the SSID, and you need to enter
the SSID manually on the wireless client to access the wireless network.
Isolate Client
This parameter implements a function similar to the VLAN function for wired networks.
It isolates the wireless devices connected to the same WiFi network, so that the
wireless devices can access only the wired network connected to the AP. You can apply
this function to hotspot setup in public spaces, such as hotels and airports to improve
network security.
WMF
The number of wireless devices keeps increasing currently, but wired and wireless
bandwidth resources are limited. Therefore, the multicast technology, which enables
single-point data transmission and multi-point data reception, has been widely used in
networks in order to reduce bandwidth requirements and prevent network congestion.
Nevertheless, if a large number of devices are connected to a wireless interface of a
WiFi network and multicast data is intended for only one of the devices, the data is still
sent to all the devices, which increases unnecessary wireless resource usage and may
lead to wireless channel congestion. In addition, multicast stream forwarding over an
802.11 network is not secure, either.
The WMF function of the AP converts multicast traffic into unicast traffic and forwards
the traffic to the multicast traffic destination in the WiFi network, helping save wireless
resources, ensuring reliable transmission, and reducing delays.
Suppress Broadcast
Probe Response
If enabled, this device does not respond to the requests without an SSID, saving
wireless resources.
Max. Number of
Clients
This parameter specifies the maximum number of devices that can connect to the WiFi
network corresponding to an SSID. If the number is reached, the WiFi network rejects
new connection requests from devices. This limit helps balance load among SSIDs.
The AP supports 128 clients at most. That is to say, clients connected to all the enabled
wireless networks of the AP cannot exceed 128. If you enable multiple SSIDs, plan your
maximum number of clients to each SSID first.
Chinese SSID
Encoding
It specifies the character encoding format.
Available options include GB2312 and UTF-8.
A proper encoding format lets the SSID containing Chinese characters be displayed
28
Parameter
Description
normally across devices.
Security Mode
It specifies the security modes supported by the AP, including:
None: This wireless network is open. The security level is the lowest.
WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy. The security level is very low.
WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK: Applicable to most scenarios.
WPA and WPA2: This mode provides highest security level. It use 802.1 x RADUIS
to encrypt and is applicable to enterprises.
See Security Mode for details.
Security Mode
A WiFi network uses radio open to the public as its data transmission medium. If the WiFi network
is not protected by necessary measures, any device can connect to the network to access
unprotected data over the network or the resources of the network. To ensure communication
security, transmission links of WiFi network must be encrypted.
The AP supports various security modes for network encryption, including None, WEP, WPA-PSK,
WPA2-PSK, Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK, and WPA/WPA2.
None
It indicates that any wireless device can connect to the WiFi network. This option is not
recommended because it leads to network insecurity.
WEP
It uses a static key to encrypt all exchanged data, and ensures that a WLAN has the same level of
security as a wired LAN. However, data encrypted based on WEP can be easily cracked. In addition,
WEP supports a maximum WiFi network throughput of only 54 Mbps. Therefore, this security mode
is not recommended.

Description
Encryption Algorithm
The AP supports the following three encryption algorithms:
AES: Advanced Encryption Standard. This is newer Wi-Fi encryption solution used
by the new-and-secure WPA2 standard. It is more secure than TKIP.
TKIP: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. This is an older encryption protocol
introduced with WPA. This option is recommended only when you have older
devices that can’t connect to a WPA2-PSK (AES) network.
AES&TKIP: It indicates that both AES and TKIP are supported.
Key
It indicates the key used for wireless clients to connect to the access point.
Key Update Interval
It indicates the interval at which a WPA key is updated. A shorter interval leads to
higher security.
WPA and WPA2
To address the key management weakness of WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK, the WiFi Alliance puts
forward WPA and WPA2, which use 802.1x to authenticate devices and generate data encryption–
oriented root keys. WPA and WPA2 use the root keys to replace the pre-shared keys that set
manually, but adopt the same encryption process as WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.
WPA and WPA2 uses 802.1x to authenticate devices and the login information of a device is
managed by the device. This effectively reduces the probability of information leakage. In addition,
each time a device connects to an AP that adopts the WPA or WPA2 security mode, the RADIUS
server generates a data encryption key and assigns it to the device, which makes it difficult for
attackers to obtain the key. These features of WPA and WPA2 security modes help increase network
security significantly, making WPA and WPA2 the preferred security modes of WiFi networks that
require high security.
Select WPA (or WAP2) from the Security Mode drop-down list menu, the following parameters

appear. See the following figure.

5.1.2 Modifying SSID-related parameters
To enter the configuration page, choose Wireless > SSID first.
Procedure
The following takes configuration on 2.4 GHz band for example. Configuration on 5 GHz is identical.
The following introduces how to modify parameters on this page. Modify them based on your
actual requirements.
Step 1 Select the SSID from the SSID drop-down list menu.
Step 2 Set Status to Enable.
Step 3 (Optional) Enable Broadcast SSID, Isolate Client, Isolate SSID, WMF, and modify the
number of client that can connect to this specific SSID in the Max. Number of Clients box.
32
The AP supports 128 clients at most. That is to say, clients connected to all the enabled wireless
networks of the AP cannot exceed 128. If you enable multiple SSIDs, plan your maximum number
of clients to each SSID first.
The AP allows you to enable 8 SSIDs on 2.4 GHz band, and 4 SSIDs on 5 GHz.
Step 4 (Optional) Customize SSID and security-related parameters as required.
SSID: Modify the default one if necessary.
Chinese SSID Encoding: A proper encoding format lets the SSID containing Chinese
characters be displayed normally across devices.
Security Mode: Choose a security mode and configure related parameters.
Step 5 Click Save to apply your settings.
