Setup Mode: Channel Configuration
WiBox2100E User Guide 63
DisConnTime (00:00) ?:
To disable the inactivity timeout, enter 00:00. Range is 0 (disabled) to 5999 seconds
(99 minutes, 59 seconds). The default setting is 0.
Send Characters
Enter up to two characters in hexadecimal representation in sendchar.
SendChar 1 (00) ? _
SendChar 2 (00) ? _
If the unit receives a character on the serial line that matches one of these
characters, it sends the character immediately, along with any awaiting characters, to
the TCP connection. This action minimizes the response time for specific protocol
characters on the serial line (for example, ETX, EOT). Setting the first sendchar to 00
disables the recognition of the characters. Alternatively, the unit can interpret two
characters as a sequence (see Pack Control on page 61). The default setting is 00.
Telnet Terminal Type
This parameter displays only if you enabled the terminal type option in Disconnect
Mode. With this option enabled, you can use the terminal name for the Telnet
terminal type. Enter only one name.
With terminal type option enabled, the unit also reacts to the EOR (end of record) and
binary options, useful for applications like terminal emulation to IBM hosts.
Channel (Port) Password
This parameter displays only if the channel (port) password option is enabled in
Disconnect Mode. With this option enabled, you can set a password on the serial
port. Blank by default.
WLAN Settings
Without adequate protection, a wireless LAN is susceptible to access by
unauthorized users. As such, WiBox features the WPA security standard, based on
IEEE802.11i and IEEE802.1X. WEP is provided for backwards compatibility and
interaction with older devices.
To modify WLAN settings, select 4 WLAN from the Change Setup menu.
Enable WLAN
Enable the Ethernet or the Wireless interface. When WLAN is enabled, the Ethernet
interface is disabled.
Enable WLAN (Y) ? _
Topology
Select Infrastructure (ESS) mode or Adhoc (IBSS) mode. Infrastructure mode
communicates with Access Points. Ad Hoc mode communicates only with other
clients.
