rite core to the cord in the position shown below. Otherwise the AC adapter may cause signal interfer-
ence.
*Supplied AC adapter may differ depends on version. 3-2 Selecting an Installation Site transmission
[NOTE]
The range varies somewhat depending on the installation location. Use the line-of-sight dis-
tances indicated below as guidelines when using an SL-1100 or SL-1105 wireless LAN card.
: approx. 50 m Indoors Outdoors : approx. 150 m When transmission speed is 11 Mbps Indoors
: approx. 30 m Outdoors : approx. 70 m Connect the ferrite core close to the DC plug. Wrap the cord once around the ferrite core and close the ferrite cord until it locks with a clicking sound. The installation site for the wireless access point must be selected carefully in order to avoid signal interference and reductions in transmission speed and range. Observe the following guidelines when selecting the location. l Select a location with as clear a line of sight as possi-
ble (i.e., as high as possible). l Select a stable, level surface that is free of vibrations and the danger of the unit falling. l Also observe the following:
Do not place objects on top of the unit or stack units on top of one another. Radio signals will pass through walls and glass but not through metal. Concrete walls may be reinforced with steel or other metal material that will block the signal. The transmission range is widest in an open space. However, the signal may be reflected from the large metal walls in such a location as a warehouse. Floors generally have steel girders and are installed with metal fire protection material. Consequently, communication between different floors is often not possible. Do not install in a location exposed to intense radio waves (such as near a wireless station) or intense electromagnetic radiation (such as near a radio trans-
mission tower). 9 3 BEFORE CONNECTING CABLES 3-3 Inserting the Wireless LAN Card Turn off the power to AP-3 unit and insert the wireless LAN card as shown in the figure. To remove the card, turn off the power and pull the card out. Insert the ICOM wireless LAN card into the PCMCIA slot. n Precautions l Be sure to turn the AP-3 unit off before inserting or removing the LAN card. Equipment failure may result if the power is left on. l There is no need to install special drivers into the AP-3 unit for the wireless LAN card. l Use only the specified ICOM wireless LAN card.

[About wireless LAN settings]
See the instruction manual provided with the ICOM wireless LAN card for instructions regarding how to set the protocol (TCP/IP) settings of the computer (Windows) into which the wireless LAN card will be insert-
ed and used for the wireless connection with the AP-3. 5-1 Network Settings When adjusting the settings of the AP-3 unit (+ p. 37), it is better to connect the computer to the AP-3 unit with a cable. This chapter is written under the assumption of a cable connection between the com-
puter and the AP-3 unit. Before connecting the computer to the AP-3 unit, adjust the protocol (TCP/IP) settings of the computer. Proceed to Chapter 6 (+ p. 37) for instructions regard-
ing how to connect a computer that is already being used in the LAN and use it to adjust the settings of the AP-3. In such a case, delete all the currently allocated IP addresses and the default gateway. When using a computer that has never been used in a LAN environment, check the items listed below. Make sure the computer to be used is installed with an Ethernet card (Ethernet board) and the provided AP-3 dri-
ver is installed on the Ethernet card. See the instruction manual provided with the Ethernet card regarding how to install the driver (if necessary). Make sure TCP/IP is installed in all of the computers. If installation is required, refer to the Help screen of the operating system or the instruction manual provided with the Ethernet card.

nected to the network. (+ p. 17). l A computer running Windows will acquire the local IP address from the AP-3 when Windows is started up and a computer using a Macintosh operating system will acquire the local IP address each time network communications are begun (e.g., when the computer accesses the internet or email). Make sure the AP-3 unit is turned on and Use DHCP server function is set to Yes on the screen shown on page 52. l When the AP-3 unit attempts to allocate a local IP address to a computer and another computer (non-
DHCP client for which local IP address was set manu-
ally) is already using the same local IP address, the AP-3 unit will not detect the existence of the address used by the other computer. l When [Routing Mode] (+ p. 51) is not used, the total number of IP addresses that the AP-3 unit can allocate automatically to both wireless and wired LAN comput-
ers is a 5 to 128. When [Routing Mode] is used, the AP-
3 unit can allocate 5 to 128 IP addresses to wireless LAN computers and the same number to wired LAN computers. The original factory setting for the number of allocations is 30 for both wired and wireless LAN.
(+ p. 53) Avoid overlapping between the IP addresses of clients
(including clients having a wireless connection) con-
nected to the same network and the range of IP addresses that the AP-3 unit can automatically allocate to computers. 33 5 COMPUTER SETTINGS 5-3 Checking the Network Settings Use one of the following procedures (depending on the operating system) to check, release, or reaac-

[NOTE]
A Macintosh computer cannot be used as a wireless terminal. 7-1 Wireless Access Point Function The wireless access point function refers to using the AP-3 unit to construct a local area network wherein wireless terminals can communicate with each other as well as with wired terminals connected to the AP-
3 via an Ethernet cable. n Schematic illustration Wired LAN Ethernet LAN Ethernet LAN Wireless LAN card Wireless transmission area Wireless transmission area AP-3 LAN Up to 256 wireless terminals can be connected. 45 7 WIRELESS FUNCTIONS 7-2 Roaming Function The roaming function refers to installing multiple AP-
3 units along an Ethernet LAN so that the wireless transmission areas overlap. This arrangement allows wireless terminal to maintain communications with the Ethernet LAN while moving among the wireless transmission areas. In short, this function allows the wireless transmission area to be expanded. n Schematic illustration Wireless transmission area Wireless LAN card Ethernet LAN AP-3 AP-3 AP-3 Switches AP-3 units Switches AP-3 units Moves Moves Wireless LAN card l Overlapping of IP addresses can be avoided by setting up only one of the AP-3 units so that the DHCP server function is enabled. l Within the mobile wireless transmission area (roaming area), all wireless terminals and AP-3 units for which the roaming function will be used must use the same
[ESS ID] setting. Wireless terminals set to a different [ESS ID] will not be able to communicate with the AP-3 units. l The wireless LAN terminals, including those in the roaming area, will operate as part of the same network group as wired LAN terminals. Therefore, routing mode
(+ p. 51) cannot be used when the roaming function is used. l When SL-1100 or SL-1105 LAN cards are used and roaming is conducted using the same channel for all LAN cards, the transmission speed may decline in the interference areas where the signals from two wireless access points (i.e., AP-3 units) can be received simul-
taneously. To avoid interference completely, set the channels of the AP-3 units at least four channels apart. l Connect the AP-3 units in a cascade arrangement by connecting them through a hub using Ethernet cable. n Roaming function precautions 46 SETTING SCREENS 8 8-1 [Wireless LAN Settings] Screen n Wireless LAN settings q w e q <SL-1100 or SL-1105 advanced settings>

* The wired terminal will obtain an IP address from either the DR-1WL or the AP-3.
* The wireless terminal will obtain an IP address from the AP-3.
* The routing information created using RIP is displayed on the [IP Routing Information] screen. 75 15 MAINTENANCE n Checking the connection with the AP-3 If the IP address of each station (terminal group) is set correctly, you can easily test whether or not IP packets are reaching their proper destination by using the ping command. To conduct the test, open the MS-DOS window and enter the following command:
ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the AP-
3 unit. By executing the ping command, four pings (echo requests) are transmitted and a reply message should be received for each ping. If a reply is not received, check the protocol settings of the station and the AP-3 unit, as well as the settings of the respective wireless LAN cards
(Network Mode, ESS ID, etc.). The message destination unreachable will be displayed if the IP address and subnet mask of the station and AP-
3 unit are not set correctly. l [Example of ping command execution] (normal case) Windows 98 76 AFTER SERVICE 16 n When the unit fails Warranty At the time of purchase, the retailer will provide a warranty sheet complete with the details of the purchase (date of purchase, name of local dealer, etc.).

mation as the IP Address, Default Gateway, and Domain Name. The AP-3 is provided with a DHCP server that allo-
cates an IP address, default gateway, DNS address, etc., to the DHCP clients (computers) when the DHCP clients start up. DNS (Domain Name System) DNS is a name resolution service for TCP/IP net-
works. The AP-3 provides a domain name service, in accordance with DNS, that allows computer names and domain names to be registered in a domain name server. By using the domain name service, the IP address of the desired site can be designated not as num-
bers but as easy-to-understand domain names and host names. ESS ID An ESS ID is a name used for identification when multiple network groups are formed within the transmission area of a wireless network. The ESS IDs of the wireless terminals in a wireless network group communicating with the AP-3 are set to the same value as the ESS ID of the AP-3. ETHERNET Ethernet is a set of standards and protocols for LAN communications developed by Xerox, Digital Equipment Corporation, and Intel. Types of Ethernet include 10BASE-T, 10BASE-5, and 10BASE-2, each requiring a different cable speci-
fication. IP (Internet Protocol) address The IP address is a 32-bit address used to distin-
guish the devices in a network constructed using TCP/IP protocol. Each network device has a unique IP address. The IP address is usually expressed as a base-10 numeral string made up of four 8-bit sections
(Example: 192.168.0.1). A private IP address is an IP address set indepen-
dently by the network manager. It is not necessary to petition an address management institution or a provider, but a private IP address must be allocat-
ed according to the following rule: When connect-
ing with an external network, the private address must be converted into a global IP address. 80 The following IP addresses can be used freely as private IP adresses:
Class A: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 Class B: 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 Class C: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 LAN (Local Area Network) A network that is relatively small in scale. A typical LAN occupies a single office or a single floor of a building. MAC address (Media Access Control Address) A MAC address is a physical address (number) uniquely set into each wired or wireless LAN card. LAN card manufacturers manage MAC addresses so that no two LAN cards in the world have the same MAC address. Ethernet uses the MAC address to send and receive frames. RIP (Routing Information Protocol) RIP is a protocol used in a TCP/IP network to exchange routing information between routers. Routers use RIP to send packets to the correct destination. SYSLOG SYSLOG is a function for sending system mes-
sages to destinations within a network. Log information can be managed using a UNIX or other SYSLOG server if the network supports this function. TCP/IP TCP/IP is the basic protocol of the internet and is currently the most popular protocol in the world. It is supported by Windows 95/98, Windows NT, and the other major operating systems. SMTP and FTP use this protocol. A TCP/IP control panel is a standard item in Macintosh computers provided with Open Transport. URL (Uniform Resource Locator) URLs are used to access home pages and other sites on the internet. Our URL is http://www.icom.co.jp. Web browser A web browser is a software application used for searching web servers and viewing web pages. Common applications include Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. GLOSSARY 18 Password A character string that a user must enter in order to access a network. The password provides net-
work security because, once established, the password must be entered correctly by the user or access will be denied. Hub A hub is required when the AP-3 and other devices are used construct a network. The hub is connected to the AP-3 using 10BASE-
T or 100BASE-TX cable. In order to achieve transmission speeds of 100 Mbps, Category 5 twisted pair cable must be used and the hub must support 100BASE-TX. Flash memory The flash memory is a memory device in the AP-3 to which data can be written. Information stored in the flash memory is not erased when the power to the unit is turned off. Protocol A protocol is a defined set of steps that is followed when data is sent and received. 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX are connection specifications for Ethernet configurations using twisted pair cable. The "10" in 10BASE-T represents an Ethernet transmission speed of 10 Mbps and the "T" repre-
sents twisted pair cable. Category 5 twisted pair cable supports 100BASE-
TX as well as 10BASE-T. Access point An access point is any device used to connect a wired LAN to a wireless LAN. Client A client is any terminal or application in a network that requests information or a service from a serv-
er and receives the corresponding response. Global IP address A global address is a globally unique address that held by only one device on the entire internet. Subnet mask A subnet mask is used to allow on IP address rep-
resent both the network address and the host address. Assuming the IP address of a certain host is 192.168.0.1 is 255.255.255.0, if the IP address and subnet mask are multiplied as binary numbers the network address will be 192.168.0.0 and the remaining 1 will be the host address. subnet mask and the Traffic Traffic refers to the flow of packets over a network or the load (amount of data) born by the network circuits. When the traffic is high, data transfers may be delayed and data may be lost. Network An arrangement wherein servers, work stations, computers, and other devices are connected via cable or a telephone circuit for the purpose of exchanging data. Packet The unit by which data is send and received in a network. A packet comprises a header portion con-
taining information required for sending and receiving and a data portion containing the data being sent. 81 Count on us!
