Configuring the WLAN Connection
Introduction
Note: Screen captures in this user’s guide may differ from what appears on your device.
The WLAN Secure Wireless Client (SWC) configures the wireless connection of the 802.11b/g radio for
numerous Dolphin terminals.
The different operating systems format the application windows of the SWC differently. For example, on
terminals running Windows CE, the tabs appear at the top of the window whereas on terminals running
Windows Mobile, the tabs appear at the bottom of the window.
Despite the different formatting, the content of the application window is the same on both terminals.
Server-Assigned IP Addresses
Please note that all server-assigned IP addresses use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Accessing the WLAN SWC
On the Today screen, tap the icon in the command bar .
This icon displays in different colors to indicate the status of the radio; see Command Bar Icon Colors on
page 1-2.
The SWC opens displaying the Status tab, which is empty until a connection is configured. After a
connection to an access point or network is configured and active, this tab displays the connection
status.

Command Bar Icon Colors
The icon in the command bar on the Today screen changes according to the status of the radio.
Note: The color of the icons matches the statuses displayed on the Status Tab (see page 1-17).
Connection Status Indicator
The command bar contains a status strength indicator.
The bars indicate the strength of the signal when the radio is transmitting.
If the radio is not transmitting, a small “x” appears over the bars.

Enabling the WLAN Radio Driver
The radio driver must be enabled for the radio to transmit a signal at all. You cannot connect to a network
unless the radio is enabled.
For details about enabling and disabling the radios on each terminal, refer to the User’s Guide for each
terminal, which are available for download from the web site: www.honeywellaidc.com.

configuration options.
The available association modes are:
•None (see page 1-8)
•WEP (see page 1-10)
•IEEE 802.1X (WEP) (see page 1-9)
•WPA-Personal (PSK) & WPA2-Personal (PSK) (see page 1-11)

Completing the EAP Fields
Depending on the EAP method selected, the following fields (may) appear or disappear based on what
the selected protocol requires or offers for its configuration:
Field Description
Identity This is the 802.1X identity supplied to the authenticator. The identity value
can be up to 63 ASCII characters and is case-sensitive.
Password This is the password used for MD5-Challenge or EAP authentication. It may
contain up to 63 ASCII characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear
instead of characters for enhanced security.
Anonymous ID Enter the anonymous ID. This ID creates a tunnel through which the real ID
(as entered in the Identity field) can pass. For additional security, make this
ID different than the one entered in the Identity field.
CA Cert. & Client
Cert.
Ta p t h e Browse button to load a CA or Client certificate located on the
terminal .
• CA certificates are any certificates created by a certified authority (CA).
• Client certificates contain information that identifies the user, as well as information
about the organization that issued the certificate. This ensures that you can encrypt
data end-to-end.
Private Key Ta p t h e Browse button to load a private key located on the terminal .
Priv Key Pass If you have loaded a private key, enter the password that unlocks the private
key.

WEP
When you select WEP as the association mode, you can select Open or Shared Encryption and enter
your keys.
Tunnel PAC &/or
Machine PAC
Ta p t h e Browse button to load a tunnel and/or machine PAC located on the
terminal .
Note: For EAP-FAST, a one-time provisioning exchange establishes a shared
secret, called a Protected Access Credential (PAC) Key. That PAC Key is used
for all subsequent authentications.
Provisioning Provisioning refers to service activation and involves programming various
network databases with the customer's information.
Select the provisioning method from the following options:
• No Provisioning
• Anonymous
• Authenticated
• Anonymous + Authenticated

must be exactly 64 characters and can only contain hexadecimal digits (A–F, 0–9).
Characters are visible the first time you enter them in this field; however, those characters will appear as
asterisks (*) the next time this configuration is opened.
Secret passwords or encryption keys are entered into both sides of the message exchange ahead of
time. Preshared keys (PSK) are typed into the clients and servers (authentication servers, access points,
etc.).
