1.3.14 Mixed Mode Security

Mixed mode security allows a single access point to transmit and receive with
mobile units operating with different encryption algorithms (WEP, Kerberos,
EAP-TLS). Using mixed mode, additional access points are not needed to
support mobile units simply because they are using different encryption
schemes.

1.3.15 Web Management Support

A Symbol Spectrum24 Access Point includes an HTTP Web server to allow the
user to access and manage the AP with a standard Java-compatible browser.
This capability provides the user with a Web-based interface for
configuration and firmware download.

Using either NetScape Navigator 4.5 or greater or Microsoft Internet
Explorer 4.0 or greater, point the browser at either the IP address of the AP
or, if the AP is defined in DNS, at the DNS name of the AP. A window opens
that allows the user to access configuration, setup and performance
information for the AP as well as additional diagnostic information.

Disable Kerberos Encryption to use a Web server to configure access
point settings.
