points are set to "Managed Modus" as standard, meaning that they
are deactivated until a profile is assigned by a WLAN Controller.
LANCOM access pointLANCOM access point. To use WLAN to connect
to a new LANCOM access point for wireless configuration, it is first
necessary to use a different means of configuration to reset the
operating mode of a WLAN interface to "Access point mode". Once
this is done, the LANCOM access point can be accessed via WLAN
with the use of the standard WPA-PSK.
The preshared key (PSK) for the standard WPA encryption consists of the
first letter "L" followed by the LAN MAC address of the access point in
ASCII characters. The LAN MAC addresses of the LANCOM devices always
begin with the character string "00A057". You will find the LAN MAC
address on a sticker on the base of the device.
labeled as "LAN MAC address" that starts with "00A057". The other
numbers that may be found are
A device with the LAN MAC address "00A05713B178" thus has a
preshared key of "L00A05713B178". This key is entered into the 'WPA or
private WEP settings' of the device for each logical WLAN network as 'Key
1/Passphrase'.
After registering for the first time, change the WPA preshared key to
ensure that you have a secure connection. See the LCOS Reference
Manual for information on secure keys and passphrases.
