Future overview
*Today only one device can be connected to the Device Point through the
network interface but a future SW-release will (probably) contain multiple
device support. This is not a big issue in our customers cases. Our
customers will probably only connect one camera to each Device Point.

Wireless LAN Technologies Overview
Network Definitions
 Channel
─ The medium use for passing data in specific frequency, such as 2.4GHz.
 BSS (Basic Service Set):
The conceptual area within which members of a basic service set may communicate
Infrastructure mode
 ESS (Extended Service Set):
A set of one or more interconnected BSSs and integrated WLANs.
Infrastructure mode
 IBSS (Independent BSS)
─ Ad-Hoc mode

How to Join Infrastructure Network
 Synchronization
 Searching target wireless networks
 Active Scanning (STA probes a frame)
 Passive Scanning (STA waits for a Beacon) – XI-815
 The Authentication Process
 To get authenticated from the target wireless network
 The Association Process
 A state where a client is allowed to pass data through an AP
 Additional Authentication(802.1x)
 Exchange the ID & Password with RADIUS server

Robust for Interference
 Sources of interference in 2.4GHz band
 Main Source: consumer microwave ovens
– Spread Spectrum Receiver design allows narrowband interference
– Rate reduction allows even more robust operation
 Other radios
– RFID tag ( radio frequency ID tag )
– Generally, various systems in the 2.4GHz and will interfere with each
other
 Bluetooth, IEEE802.11 and Home RF are currently imcompatible and
will interfere
 IEEE802.11 and Home RF interoperability is currently being evaluated
by Home RF working group
Security
Why Security is so important?
 Privacy
 Preventing Unauthorized Access
 Information security (read only/fully authorized)
 Preventing Attacks
 Virus
 Personal Security Policy
 Networking Security Policy
 Tunnel
 Firewall
How to protect your network?






Use virus protection software
Use firewall
Set up personal and group firewall.
Do not open unknown email attachments
Do not run programs of unknown origin
Disable hidden filename extensions
 Keep all applications (including your operating system) patched
 Turn off your computer or disconnect from the network when not in
use
 Disable Java, JavaScript, and ActiveX if possible
 Disable scripting features in email programs
 Make regular backups of critical data
 Make a boot disk in case your computer is damaged or
compromised
Security in the 802.11b
SSID (Wireless network name)
Authentication
MAC address Control
WEP-keys
However…
 Wireless Network Vulnerability
 2.4GHz radio signal and unlicensed
band
 Broadcasting all the time
 WEP Encryption has been broken by certain
means, it is not secure any more.
 Authentication process is not strong enough since
WEP encryption has been defeated.
Recommendation 1
 More secure with WEP on than with WEP off.
 The wireless link between the AP and client is only one
small part of a secure network.
 Large companies should implement end-to-end security
 VPN, RADIUS, IEEE 802.1x
 Home and small business can take several measures to
improve security until a solution is available
Recommendation 2
 Turn WEP on and manage your WEP key by changing the
default key
 Changing the WEP key, daily to weekly.
 Password protect drives and folders.
 Change the default SSID (Wireless Network Name).
 Use MAC address control.
 Use a VPN system. Though it would require a VPN server,
the VPN client is already included in many operating
systems such as Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows
2000 and Windows XP.

Repeater Bridge
While using a wireless bridge
in this configuration has the
advantage of extending the link,
it has the disadvantage of
decreased throughput due to
having to repeat all frames
using the same half duplex
radio. Same channel is
required for all bridges.
