Term
SSID SSID is an acronym for Service Set Identifier.The SSID is a sequence
of numbers and characters that represents the ID, a name, of the
wireless network. For the 802.11a/b/g wireless Dash to connect
wirelessly, the SSID from the wireless network must match the SSID of
the 802.11a/b/g wireless Dash. A 802.11a/b/g wireless Dash has a
default SSID of rtGEHClinical.
SECURITY A 802.11a/b/g wireless Dash provides four levels of security: NONE,
WEP 128 bit, WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES-CCMP).
NONE provides no security to the wireless communication

WEP 128 bit, Wired Equivalency Privacy, provides some level of

security, but it is less secure than WPA-PSK (TKIP).
WPA-PSK (TKIP), Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, is more secure

than WEP. TKIP has a per-packet key hashing method to secure its
data.
WPA2-PSK (AES-CCMP), Advanced Encryption Standard Counter

Mode Cipher-block Chaining message authentification code, is the
most secure method of security supported by the 802.11a/b/g
wireless Dash. For the 802.11a/b/g wireless Dash, WPA2-PSK
(AES-CCMP) is recommended.
PASS KEY Pass Key is equivalent to passphrase. This is a sequence of numbers
and characters for the wireless Dash to connect to a security enabled
wireless network, WEP 128 bit, WPA-PSK (TKIP), or WPA2-PSK (AES-
CCMP). When WEP 128 bit security is selected, the wireless Dash
generates the 26 hex characters for four different keys, displayed in
four different rows (1st row represents a key index of one, 2nd row for a
key index of two, 3rd row for a key index of three and 4th row for a key
index of four). One of these keys needs to match the WEP 128 security
setting in the access point for the wireless Dash to communicate
properly. When WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2-PSK (AES-CCMP) is
selected, the wireless Dash will not generate the 26 hex characters.
Pass Key or passphrase needs to match the WPA-PSK (TKIP) or
WPA2-PSK (AES-CCMP) setting in the access point in order for it to
communicate properly.
KEY INDEX (only required for WEP 128 bit)
When WEP 128 bit security is selected, the wireless Dash and the
wireless network need to share the same key index.
