Netgear DUALBAND WLAN WNDAP360 N300 AP WNDAP360-PES ユーザーズマニュアル

g.  Click Apply to save your security profile settings. The Bridging screen displays 

again.

h.  Repeat 

 for any other security profile that you want to edit.

For example, first configure security profile NETGEAR-WDS-1 with the MAC address 
of AP1, and then configure security profile NETGEAR-WDS-2 with the MAC address 
of AP3 (see 

 on page 98).

Network Authentication 
and

 

Data Encryption

 

(continued)

Open System

Although you can use the bridge communication without any 
authentication and encryption, NETGEAR recommends that 
you use WEP if you do select an open system. From the 
Data Encryption drop-down list, select one of the following:

•  None. No authentication and encryption.

•  64-bit WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 40/64-bit 

encryption.

• 128-bit WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 104/128-bit 

encryption.

•  152-bit WEP. Proprietary WEP encryption mode, using 

128+24 bits encryption. This mode functions only with 
other wireless station that support this mode.

WPA-PSK

TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) is the standard 
encryption method used with WPA-PSK and the only 
selection possible from the Data Encryption drop-down list.

In the WPA Passphrase (Network Key) field, enter a 
passphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between 
8 and 63 characters (inclusive).

WPA2-PSK

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is the standard 
encryption method used with WPA2-PSK and the only 
selection possible from the Data Encryption drop-down list.

In the WPA Passphrase (Network Key) field, enter a 
passphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between 
8 and 63 characters (inclusive).

NETGEAR recommends WPA2-PSK authentication 

with AES encryption if you want to use the 11n rates and 
speed.

IP Address

To verify the connection between the access point and the wireless station 
that you intend to build a bridge with, enter the IP address of the wireless 
station, and then click Link Test. The Link Test Process Status field displays 
the results of the test (Uninitialized, In Process, Success, Timed Out, or 
Failure). 

You should be able to ping the IP address of both APs from a 

connected client. Failure to ping one of the APs means that the wireless signal 
is not traversing the bridge. Failure to ping both IP addresses means that the 
clients is not connected correctly.
