Enabling/disabling SSID broadcasts. 
The user can enable or disable the SSID 
broadcasts functionality for security reasons. When the SSID broadcasts functionality 
is disabled, a client computer cannot associate the wireless AP with an “any” network 
name (SSID, Service Set ID); the correct SSID has to be specified on client com-
puters. 
‹ 
MAC-address-based access control.
 Blocking unauthorized wireless client 
computers based on MAC (Media Access Control) addresses. 
‹ 
Repeater. 
A wireless AP can communicate with other wireless APs via WDS 
(Wireless Distribution System). Therefore, the wireless AP can wirelessly forward 
packets from wireless clients to another wireless AP, and then the later wireless AP 
forwards the packets to the Ethernet network. 
‹ 
Wireless client isolation.
 Wireless-to-wireless traffic can be blocked so that the 
wireless clients cannot see each other. This capability can be used in hotspots appli-
cations to prevent wireless hackers from attacking other wireless users’ computers. 
‹ 
AP load balancing.
 Several wireless APs can form a load-balancing group. Within 
a group, wireless client associations and traffic load can be shared among the wireless 
APs. 
‹ 
Transmit power control. 
Transmit power of the wireless AP’s RF module can be 
adjusted to change RF coverage of the wireless AP. 
‹ 
Showing associated wireless clients. 
Showing the status of every wireless cli-
ent that is associated with the wireless AP. 
‹ 
Replaceable antennas. 
The factory-mounted antennas can be replaced with 
high-gain antennas for different purposes. 
 
Internet Connection Sharing 
„ 
DNS proxy. The IWE3200 can forward DNS (Domain Name System) requests from cli-
ent computers to DNS servers on the Internet. And DNS responses from the DNS servers 
can be forwarded back to the client computers. 
‹ 
Static DNS mappings. 
The network administrator can specify static FQDN (Fully 
Qualified Domain Name) to IP address mappings. Therefore, a host on the internal 
network can access a server also on the intranet by a registered FQDN. 
„ 
DHCP server.
 The IWE3200 can automatically assign IP addresses to client computers 
by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). 
‹ 
Static DHCP mappings. 
The network administrator can specify static IP address 
to MAC address mappings so that the specified IP addresses are always assigned to 
the hosts with the specified MAC addresses. 
‹ 
Showing current DHCP mappings. 
Showing which IP address is assigned to 
which host identified by an MAC address.
