1.1 Outline
The MAGNIA Software Access Point is a software product that facilitates the Toshiba Intel
Architecture server to work as a wireless LAN access point.
The basic functions of this product are as follows:
Communication between a wireless LAN network and wired LAN network
This function enables a wireless or wired LAN PC to be connected to the resources in a wired or
wireless LAN network via an access point.
Enhanced security by encryption (WEP)
Using the WEP function can enhance network security.
Access restriction of wireless LAN station
Station access can be restricted by registering the MAC address of each applicable station.
Access Point Configuration Utility (remote)
The Access Point can be configured from a remote PC connected to the MAGNIA Software Access
Point.
Access Point Statistics Utility (Function from V3.0)
You can browse information about the sending and receiving of packets for each adapter and each
station, and about IEEE 802.1x authentication.
Access Point Log Utility (Function from V3.0)
You can save information about the sending and receiving of packets for each adapter and each
station, and about IEEE 802.1x authentication.
802.1X Function
In connection with a RADIUS server, this function can restrict individual wireless LAN stations from
accessing the network by performing an authentication procedure. Also, the WEP key can be
changed periodically and distributed to the stations. (WEP key distribution can be disabled
depending on the authentication method used.)
RADIUS Selection Function (Function from V3.0)
You can select the appropriate RADIUS server through its EAP/Identity. Authentication between
independent domains can be performed smoothly.
