3 Marketing information (not yet)

4 System Overview

5 The 802.11b Access Point is connected on the main network. The Camera is connected to the 802.11b Device Point.

6 System Overview Access Point Wired Network Device Point Internet Device Point

7 *Today only one device can be connected to the Device Point through the network interface but in next SW-release will contain multiple device support. This is not a big issue in our customers cases. Our customers will probably only connect one camera to each Device Point. Future overview

8 Access Point Wired Network Device Point Wired Network Internet Multi-Client Support (will be available) Device Point

9 How to connect the 802.11b Access Point  Connect the 802.11b Access Point on the main network.  Configure the 802.11b Access Point from a computer on the main network (Smart AP utility)  Configure the network parameters and the Security- settings.

10 How to connect the Camera to the 802.11b Device Point  Use a cross over connected UTP Ethernet cable to connect the Camera Server to the Device Point.  The 802.11b Device Point is a bridge (converter) between cabled Ethernet and wireless Ethernet (IEEE 802.11b).  Today only one camera can be connected to each Device Point.

11 Wireless LAN Technologies Overview

12  Channel ─ The medium use for passing data in specific frequency, such as 2.4GHz.  BSS (Basic Service Set):  The conceptual area within which members of a basic service set may communicate  Infrastructure mode  ESS (Extended Service Set):  A set of one or more interconnected BSSs and integrated WLANs.  Infrastructure mode  IBSS (Independent BSS) ─ Ad-Hoc mode Authentication  Association  Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)  Wireless Distribution System (WDS)  The whole interconnected Wireless LAN, including the different cells, their respective Access Points and the Distribution System Network Definitions

13 Infrastructure-BSS  BSS/ESS uses infrastructure mode. Wired Network Access Point Client Basic Service Set – single cell

14 Infrastructure-ESS Wired Network Access Point Client Access Point Client

15 Ad-Hoc (IBSS)  IBSS uses Ad- Hoc mode

16 How to Join the Infrastructure Network Wired Network Access Point Client ID : SanDisk1 Channel 7 Open system w/o WEP Searching Auth. Assoc. Connected ΘΞΠ

17  Synchronization  Searching target wireless networks  Active Scanning (STA probes a frame)  Passive Scanning (STA waits for a Beacon) – XI-815  The Authentication Process  To get authenticated from the target wireless network  The Association Process  A state where a client is allowed to pass data through an AP  Additional Authentication(802.1x)  Exchange the ID & Password with RADIUS server How to Join Infrastructure Network

26 Security

27 Why Security is so important?  Privacy  Preventing Unauthorized Access  Information security (read only/fully authorized)  Preventing Attacks  Virus  Personal Security Policy  Networking Security Policy  Tunnel  Firewall

28 How to protect your network?  Use virus protection software  Use firewall  Set up personal and group firewall.  Do not open unknown email attachments  Do not run programs of unknown origin  Disable hidden filename extensions  Keep all applications (including your operating system) patched  Turn off your computer or disconnect from the network when not in use  Disable Java, JavaScript, and ActiveX if possible  Disable scripting features in email programs  Make regular backups of critical data  Make a boot disk in case your computer is damaged or compromised

29  SSID (Wireless network name)  Authentication  Open system  Share Key  MAC address Control  WEP-keys Security in the 802.11b

30 However…  Wireless Network Vulnerability  2.4GHz radio signal and unlicensed band  Broadcasting all the time  WEP Encryption has been broken by certain means, it is not secure any more.  Authentication process is not strong enough since WEP encryption has been defeated.

31 Recommendation 1  More secure with WEP on than with WEP off.  The wireless link between the AP and client is only one small part of a secure network.  Large companies should implement end-to-end security  VPN, RADIUS, IEEE 802.1x  Home and small business can take several measures to improve security until a solution is available

32 Recommendation 2  Turn WEP on and manage your WEP key by changing the default key  Changing the WEP key, daily to weekly.  Password protect drives and folders.  Change the default SSID (Wireless Network Name).  Use MAC address control.  Use a VPN system. Though it would require a VPN server, the VPN client is already included in many operating systems such as Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
