" Use the WEP encryption command to enable all types of encryption. Use the wpa-clients command to set WPA to be required or supported for clients. Use the wpa-mode command to enable WPA dynamic keys over 802. 1x. Set the broadcast and multicast key encryption using the multicast-cipher command. Then set 802. 1x to required, and disable MAC authentication. To view the current 802. 11g security settings, use the show interface wireless g command (not shown in example).

[. . . ] Wireless clients can read the SSID from the beacon, and automatically reset their SSID to allow immediate connection to the nearest access point. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (ODFM) OFDM/ allows multiple users to transmit in an allocated band by dividing the bandwidth into many narrow bandwidth carriers. Power over Ethernet (PoE) A specification for providing both power and data to low-power network devices using a single Category 5 Ethernet cable. PoE provides greater flexibility in the locating of access point's and network devices, and significantly decreased installation costs. [. . . ]
