Chapter 7: Managing Network Profiles 69<br />

Configuring WLAN Settings<br />

From a network profile, you can configure WLAN settings for your devices.<br />

These settings will be deployed with the profile and applied on the device.<br />

The options include:<br />

SSID<br />

Encryption<br />

This option provides wireless devices with the SSID.<br />

The SSID is a service set identifier that only allows<br />

communication between devices sharing the same<br />

SSID.<br />

This option allows you to enable encryption between<br />

your devices and the server. You have the following<br />

options for encryption:<br />

Use Profile/None. Devices do not encrypt<br />

information.<br />

WEP. Wired Equivalent Privacy is an encryption<br />

protocol using either a 40‐ or 128‐bit key which is<br />

distributed to your devices. When WEP is enabled, a<br />

device can only communicate with other devices that<br />

share the same WEP key.<br />

NOTE <strong>Avalanche</strong> only tracks the WEP keys that were<br />

assigned to devices through the <strong>Avalanche</strong> <strong>Console</strong>.<br />

Consequently, WEP keys displayed in the console<br />

might not match the keys for a wireless device if you<br />

modified them from outside of <strong>Avalanche</strong>.
