Chapter 2: Introduction
2.1 Overview of the AP
The CMP-WNAP10 54Mbps Wireless Access Point is the basic building block of a wireless
LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and
radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other
devices.
The CMP-WNAP10 54Mbps Wireless Access Point acts as a bridge between the wired LAN
and wireless clients. Connecting multiple CMP-WNAP10 Access Points via a wired
Ethernet backbone can further lengthen the wireless network coverage. As a mobile
computing device moves out of the range of one access point, it moves into the range of
another. As a result, wireless clients can freely roam from one Access Point to another
and still maintain seamless connection to the network.
In the most attentive wireless security, the CMP-WNAP10 54Mbps Wireless Access
Point provides multiple protection measures. It can be set to turn off wireless network
name (SSID) broadcast so that only stations that have the SSID can be connected. The
AP provides wireless LAN 64/128/152-bit WEP encryption security, and WPA/WPA2 and
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authentication, as well as TKIP/AES encryption security. It also
supports VPN pass-through for sensitive data secure transmission.

to point), Bridge (point to Multi-point).
Access Point - Access Point mode allows wireless stations including AP clients to
access.
SSID - Enter a value of up to 32 characters. The same name (SSID) must be
assigned to all wireless devices in your network. The default SSID is WNAP10,
but it is recommended strongly that you change your networks name (SSID) to
a different value. This value is case-sensitive. For example, WNAP10 is NOT
the same as wnap10.
Enable SSID Broadcast - If you select the Enable SSID Broadcast checkbox,
the Wireless Access Point SSID will broadcast its name (SSID) on the air.
Client - This mode allows one or more remote LANs connect with a central LAN, and
thus creating an extended virtual LAN. In this way, any station of the Remote LAN
can successfully communicate with any station of the central LAN, as if all of them
belong to the same physical LAN. Wireless Stations can’t associate with AP Clients.
SSID - Enter the SSID of AP that you want to access. If you select the radio
before SSID, the AP client will connect to AP according SSID.
MAC of AP -Enter the MAC address of AP that you want to access. If you select
the radio before MAC of AP, the AP client will connect to AP according MAC
address.
Repeater - A wireless repeater is an AP with its own BSS that relays data to a root
AP, to which it is associated. The wireless repeater relays signal between its stations
and the root AP for greater wireless range. Please input the MAC address of root AP
in the field of MAC of AP.
Here is an example of how to configure wireless repeater. Please do the following:

3. Verify connectivity across the LANs. A computer on any LAN segment should be able
to connect to the Internet or share files and printers with any other PCs or servers
connected to any of the three WLAN segments.
Note: You can extend this repeating by adding up to 2 additional CMP-WNAP10s
configured in repeater mode. However, since Repeater configurations communicate in
half-duplex mode, the bandwidth decreases as you add Repeaters to the network. Also,
you can extend the range of the wireless network with wireless antenna accessories.
Bridge (Point to Point) -This mode bridges the AP and another AP also in bridge
mode to connect two wired LANs. Please input the MAC address of the other AP in
the field of MAC of AP.
Here is an example of how to configure Point-to-Point Bridge. Please do the following:
