Manual

• MAC-address-based access control. When the SMC2582W-B is in AP or Bridge Master

mode,it can be configured to block unauthorized STAs or Bridge Slaves based on MAC (Media

Access Control) addresses.The ACL (Access Control List) can also be downloaded from a TFTP

server.

• Transmit power control. Transmit power of the SMC2582W-B can be adjusted to control the

area of coverage.

• Link integrity. When the SMC2582W-B is in AP or Bridge Master mode and the Ethernet LAN

interface is detected to be disconnected from the wired network,all currently associated wire-

less clients (STAs and Bridge Slaves) are disassociated by the SMC2582W-B and no wireless client

can associate with it thereafter.

• Associated wireless clients status. Showing the status of all wireless clients (STAs and

Bridge Slaves) that are associated with the SMC2582W-B.

• Detachable antenna. The SMC2582W-B antenna can be replaced with high-gain antennas

for long operating range.

• DHCP client. The SMC2582W-B can automatically obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.

• DHCP server.The SMC2582W-B can automatically assign IP addresses to computers or other

devices by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).

• Static DHCP mappings.The administrator can specify static IP address to MAC

address mappings so that the specified IP addresses are always assigned to the hosts

with the specified MAC addresses.

• Showing current DHCP mappings. Showing which IP address is assigned to which

host identified by a MAC address.

• Packet Filtering.The SMC2582W-B provides Layer 2,Layer 3,and Layer 4 filtering capabilities.

• Firmware Tools
