Wireless Links

A wireless link represents a connection between exactly two wireless interfaces. Unlike a wireless LAN, which permit an arbitrary number of client associations, wireless links are used to model point-to-point wireless connections.

Fields

Interfaces

Select two interfaces: One for side A and one for side B. (Both must be wireless interfaces.)

Status

The operational status of the link. Options include:

  • Connected
  • Planned
  • Decommissioning

SSID

The service set identifier (SSID) for the wireless link (optional).

Authentication Type

The type of wireless authentication in use. Options include:

  • Open
  • WEP
  • WPA Personal (PSK)
  • WPA Enterprise

Authentication Cipher

The security cipher used to apply wireless authentication. Options include:

  • Auto (automatic)
  • TKIP
  • AES

Pre-Shared Key

The security key configured on each client to grant access to the secured wireless LAN. This applies only to certain authentication types.

Distance

The numeric distance of the link, including a unit designation (e.g. 100 meters or 25 feet).
