802.1x security and wireless distribution systems (wds)

Wireless distribution systems (WDS) are configured using specific ports on the WL520 unit and frequency channels in the

wireless interface cards. To use 802.1x with WDS, you need to set the 802.1x Security Mode to Mixed (WEP and 802.1x) and

confirm that the WL520 units communicating in the WDS share the same encryption key (Key 1). See

for more information.

NOTE:

WDS is only available for 802.11b cards.

if you encounter problems...

Cannot Associate with a Network. When the client starts, it automatically looks for a network. If it cannot associate with a

network, confirm that the case-sensitive Network Name (SSID) is properly configured on the client.

NOTE:

Refer to the documentation that came with your wireless client for assistance with configuring its Network Name.

If the Network Name is the same in both the client and the WL520 device, then verify the settings in the Security Properties

table, which includes encryption settings.

Other Errors. Systematically double-check the WL520 unit settings, especially the IP Addresses and the client IP Address

Pool.
