from the default channel, there is no need to change the channel. Value: Select the permitted operating channel from the list. Ad Hoc Power Management NOTE: When an 802.11a channel is not displayed, initiating ad hoc networks is not supported for 802.11a channels. Set power saving features for device to device (ad hoc) networks.
Power Management Lets you select a balance between power consumption and WiFi adapter performance. The WiFi adapter power settings slider sets a balance between the computer's power source and the battery. Roaming Aggressiveness NOTE: Power consumption savings vary based on Network (Infrastructure) settings. This setting lets you define how aggressively your wireless client roams to improve connection to an access point.

WEEE Glossary of Terms Term 802.11 802.11a 802.11b 802.11g 802.11n Definition The 802.11 standard refers to a family of specifications developed by the IEEE for wireless LAN technology. The 802.
802.1X AAA Server Access Point (AP) Ad Hoc Network AES-CCMP Authentication Available network BER Bit Rate Broadcast SSID BSSID CA (Certificate Authority) CCX (Cisco Compatible eXtension) 802.1X is the IEEE Standard for Port-Based Network Access Control. This is used in conjunction with EAP methods to provide access control to wired and wireless networks. Authentication, Authorization and Accounting Server. A system to control access to computer resources and track user activity.
Certificate CKIP Client computer DSSS EAP EAP-AKA Used for client authentication. A certificate is registered on the authentication server (for example, RADIUS server) and used by the authenticator. Cisco Key Integrity Protocol (CKIP) is a Cisco proprietary security protocol for encryption in 802.11 media. CKIP uses a key message integrity check and message sequence number to improve 802.11 security in infrastructure mode. CKIP is Cisco's version of TKIP.
EAP-GTC EAP-OTP The EAP-FAST method can be divided into two parts: provisioning, and authentication. The provisioning phase involves the initial delivery of the PAC to the client. This phase only needs to be performed once per client and user. The EAP-GTC (Generic Token Card) is similar to the EAP-OTP except with hardware token cards. The request contains a displayable message, and the response contains the string read from the hardware token card.
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is an organization involved in defining computing and communications standards. The address of a computer that is attached to a network. Part of the Internet Protocol (IP) address designates which network the computer is on, and the other part address represents the host identification. LAN (Local Area A high-speed, low-error data network covering a relatively small Network) geographic area.
Power save mode Preferred network The state in which the radio is periodically powered down to conserve power. When the portable computer is in Power Save mode, received packets are stored in the access point until the wireless adapter wakes up. One of the networks that has been configured. Such networks are listed under Preferred networks on the Wireless Networks tab of the Wireless Network Connection Properties (Windows* XP environment).
weak security feature. To connect to a stealth access point, a user must specifically know the SSID and configure their DMU accordingly. The feature is not a part of the 802.11 specification, and is known by differing names by various vendors: closed mode, private network, SSID broadcasting. Temporal Key Integrity protocol improves data encryption. Wi-Fi Protected Access* uses its TKIP. TKIP provides important data encryption enhancements including a re-keying method.
The hex key must be 10 hexadecimal characters (0-9, A-F) for 64-bit WEP or 26 hexadecimal characters (0-9, A-F) for 128-bit WEP. Wi-Fi* (Wireless Is meant to be used generically when referring of any type to 802.11 Fidelity) network, whether 802.11b, 802.11a, or dual-band. WiMAX, the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a telecommunications technology aimed at providing wireless data over long distances in a variety of ways, from point-to-point links to full mobile cellular type access.
WPA is an interim standard that will be replaced with the IEEE's 802.11i standard upon its completion. Wi-Fi Protected Access-Personal provides a level of security in the small WPA-Personal network or home environment. WPA-PSK mode does not use an authentication server. It can be used WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi with the data encryption types WEP or TKIP. WPA-PSK requires Protected-Access Pre- configuration of a pre-shared key (PSK).
