Wireless Port
Control To control wireless stations access to the wired network, select a control method from
the drop-down list box. Choose from No Authentication Required, Authentication
Required and No Access Allowed.
No Authentication Required allows all wireless stations access to the wired network
without entering usernames and passwords. This is the default setting.
Authentication Required means that all wireless stations have to enter usernames
and passwords before access to the wired network is allowed.
No Access Allowed blocks all wireless stations access to the wired network.
ReAuthentication

seconds (30 minutes).
If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS
server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has
priority.
Idle Timeout

a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the username and password
again before access to the wired network is allowed.
