Netgear Business Central Wireless Manager (BCWM) Manual Do Utilizador

The VLAN ID is a 12-bit number that identifies the tagged VLAN. If the connection from the access
points to the Internet gateway requires an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag, you must specify a VLAN ID. If
multiple WiFi networks operate over the same physical Ethernet link, VLANs can provide isolation and
separation.

From the Authentication Type menu, select the type of authentication:

Open. You do not need to specify any additional information because the network functions without
authentication and encryption.

WPA Personal. In the Password field, you must specify the password that is required to access
the network. You can enter up to 63 alphanumeric and special characters.
The default encryption method is TKIP+AES, but you can select the Change Data Encryption
check box and, from the Data Encryption menu, select TKIP.

WPA Enterprise. You must specify a RADIUS profile and the network must be connected to a
RADIUS server.
For more information, see 

 on page

49.

To assign a captive portal to the WiFi network, click the +Add a Captive Portal button.

For information about configuring a captive portal, see 

 on page 53.

To specify bandwidth caps, select the Enable Bandwidth Caps check box and adjust the upload and
download bandwidth caps.

By default, the upload and download bandwidth caps are 1000 Kbps each. For each type of bandwidth
cap, the minimum value is 64 Kbps and the maximum value is 10 Gbps.

If you select WPA Personal (with TKIP + AES) or WPA Enterprise from the Authentication Type
menu, you can configure fast roaming (802.11r) for the WAC720 and WAC730 access points by doing
the following:

Select the Enable Fast Roaming check box.

For more information about fast roaming and associated restrictions, see 

 on page 60.

If you select the Enable Fast Roaming check box, the Exchange Fast Roaming Info Over Wired
Network check box displays.

To enable fast roaming information to be exchanged over the wired network, select the Exchange
Fast Roaming Info Over Wired Network check box.

If you enable fast roaming, by default, fast roaming information is exchanged over the WiFi network
instead of the wired network.

To enable client isolation, select the Enable Client Isolation check box.

Enabling client isolation on a WiFi network for a location with 802.11ac access points
enables client isolation for all WiFi networks for those access points.

To set up a radio on/off broadcast schedule, select the Create Schedule check box.
