8 ww w . g at eway . c om Wha t the access poin t does not pro vide The Gateway 7001 S e ries self-mana ged AP is no t designed to function as a gateway to the Internet. T o connect your LAN to other LANs or the Internet, you need a gateway device, such as a rou ter or a sw itch.
9 www .gate wa y .com A dministra tor ’ s c omputer Configuratio n and administratio n of the Gateway 7001 Series self-managed AP is accomplished w ith the K ic kStar t utility (which you run from the CD ) and through a W eb-based user interface (UI).
10 ww w . g at eway . c om Kic kStar t Wizard on CD Y ou can run the KickSta r t CD on an y laptop or compute r that is connec ted to the access point (through Wired or Wireles s connec tion). It dete cts Gatew ay 7001 Series se lf-managed APs on th e ne twor k.
11 www .gate wa y .com W ireless client c omput ers The Gateway 7001 Series self-mana ged AP provides wirel e ss acce ss to any client with a correctly configured W i-Fi client adapter for the 802.11 mo de in which the access point is running. Multiple client operating systems are suppor ted.
12 ww w . g at eway . c om Understanding dynamic and static IP addressing Gateway 7001 Series self-managed APs ar e built t o auto-configure, with very little se tup required for the first access point and no configuration required for additional access points subsequently joining a preconfigured cluster .
13 www .gate wa y .com Sta tic IP addressing The Gateway 7001 Series self-mana ged AP ships with a defa ult Static IP Address o f 192.168.1.1. ( See the default set tings for the AP in “Gateway 7 001 Seri es self-m anage d AP” on page 5 .) If no DHCP ser ver is found on the network, the AP retains this static IP address at first-time st a rtup.

16 ww w . g at eway . c om Setting up th e access point Set ting up an d depl oying one or mor e Gatewa y 7001 Series self-managed APs is in effect creating and launching a wireles s network . The KickStart W izard and corresponding Basic Settings Administra tion W e b page simplify thi s process.
17 www .gate wa y .com Wh at’ s inside the acc ess poin t? An access point is a single-purpose c omputer designed to functi on as a wireless hub. Inside the access point is a W i-Fi radio system, a mi croprocessor , and sometimes a mini- PC card.
18 ww w . g at eway . c om C onnec ting the a cc ess point to netw ork and po wer The next step is to set up the network and power connections. T o set up the network and power connections: 1 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the network port on the access point and the other end to the s a me hub where your computer is co nnec ted.
19 www .gate wa y .com 2 Connect the power adapter to the power port on the back of the access point, then plug the other end of the power cord into a power outlet (preferably , using a surge protect or).
20 ww w . g at eway . c om Hardw are conn ec tions f or a phy sically separ ate guest ne twork If you plan to configure a p hysically separa te guest network, you need to set up your network connections differently a t this point.
21 www .gate wa y .com Run the KickStart CD on a laptop or computer that is connected to the same network as your access points and use it to step through the discovery process. Important K eep in min d that Kic kStar t (and the other Gate wa y adminis tration tools ) recogniz es and confi gures only Gate wa y 7001 Series sel f-managed APs .
22 ww w . g at eway . c om T o run KickStart: 1 Insert the KickSt a rt W izard CD into the CD drive on yo ur computer . If the KickStart window is not displa yed automatically , navigate to the CD dri ve and double-click the Kickstart executa ble file to activate the KickSta rt utility on the CD.

80 ww w . g at eway . c om C onfiguring netw ork security Understanding security issues on wireless networks W ireless mediums are inherently less secure than wired mediums. For example, an Ethernet NIC transmits its p ackets over a physical medium such as coaxial cable or twisted pair .
81 www .gate wa y .com C omparison of secur ity modes for k ey manageme nt, authen tication, and encryption algorithms The three major factors that determine th e effectiveness of a security p r otoco.
82 ww w . g at eway . c om Recommendations Static WEP was designed to provide security equivalent of sending unencrypted data through an Etherne t connection, however it has ma jor flaws and it does not p rovide even this intended level of security . Therefore, Static WEP is no t recommended as a secure mode.
83 www .gate wa y .com Recommendations IEEE 802.1x mo d e is a b e tter choic e than Static WEP because keys are d y namically generated and changed periodically .
84 ww w . g at eway . c om Recommendations WP A with RADIUS mode is the recommended mode . The CCMP (AES) and TKIP encryption algorithms used with WP A modes are far superior to the R C4 algorithm used for Stati c WEP or IEEE 802.1x modes . Therefore, CCMP (AES) or TKIP should be used whenever possible.
85 www .gate wa y .com For information o n how to configure WP A with RA DIUS security mode, see “WP A with RADIUS” o n page 95 . When to use WP A-PSK W i-Fi Protected Access (WP A) with Pre-Shared K ey (PSK) is a W i-Fi Alliance su bset of IEEE 802.
86 ww w . g at eway . c om For example, some devices on your network may not support WP A with EAP talking to a RADIUS server . Embedded printer servers o r ot her small client devices with ver y limited space for implementation may no t support RA DIUS.

(Not e you can a lso allow or prohibit the Broa dcast SSID as an extra precaution a s mentioned in the following section.
89 www .gate wa y .com For a minimum level of p rotection on a guest network, you can c hoose to suppress (prohibit) the broadc a st of the SSID ( netwo rk name) to discourage client st ations from automaticall y discovering your access p oint. (See also “Does Prohibiting the Broadcast SSID Enhance Security ?” on page 86 .

91 www .gate wa y .com Rules to Reme mber for Static WEP ■ All client stations m ust have the Wireless LA N (WLAN) security set to WEP and all clients must hav e one of the WEP keys spec ified o n the AP in order to de-crypt AP-to-station data transmi ssions.
92 ww w . g at eway . c om Example of Using St atic WEP For a simple example, supp ose you configure three WEP keys on the ac cess point. In our example, the T ransfer Key Index for the AP is set to 3 . This mea ns that the WEP key in slot 3 is the k e y the access poi nt will use to encryp t the data it se nds.
93 www .gate wa y .com If you have a second client s tation , that st ation al so need s to hav e one of the WEP k eys defined on th e AP . Y o u could g ive it the same WEP key you ga ve to the first station.

Ein wichtiger Punkt beim Kauf des Geräts Gateway 7001 Series (oder sogar vor seinem Kauf) ist das durchlesen seiner Bedienungsanleitung. Dies sollten wir wegen ein paar einfacher Gründe machen:
Wenn Sie Gateway 7001 Series noch nicht gekauft haben, ist jetzt ein guter Moment, um sich mit den grundliegenden Daten des Produkts bekannt zu machen. Schauen Sie zuerst die ersten Seiten der Anleitung durch, die Sie oben finden. Dort finden Sie die wichtigsten technischen Daten für Gateway 7001 Series - auf diese Weise prüfen Sie, ob das Gerät Ihren Wünschen entspricht. Wenn Sie tiefer in die Benutzeranleitung von Gateway 7001 Series reinschauen, lernen Sie alle zugänglichen Produktfunktionen kennen, sowie erhalten Informationen über die Nutzung. Die Informationen, die Sie über Gateway 7001 Series erhalten, werden Ihnen bestimmt bei der Kaufentscheidung helfen.
Wenn Sie aber schon Gateway 7001 Series besitzen, und noch keine Gelegenheit dazu hatten, die Bedienungsanleitung zu lesen, sollten Sie es aufgrund der oben beschriebenen Gründe machen. Sie erfahren dann, ob Sie die zugänglichen Funktionen richtig genutzt haben, aber auch, ob Sie keine Fehler begangen haben, die den Nutzungszeitraum von Gateway 7001 Series verkürzen könnten.
