INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 Function Overview

6 Function Overview

The INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 offers the following functions:

 WLAN / Ethernet Bridge

The function "Layer 2.5 NAT" enables bridging between 2 network seg-

ments. The bridging function works transparently for IP connections and

requires no special network settings for the individual devices. The only

requirement for bridging is that devices must be located in the same net-

work segment, just like for a direct cable connection. The INSYS WLAN

bridge 2.1 connects a WLAN to an Ethernet segment. This enables WLAN

devices to be integrated into an existing Ethernet infrastructure. The

bridge forwards all data incoming via the Ethernet to the WLAN. Vice

versa, data from the WLAN is sent to the Ethernet. Services that are avail-

able in the Ethernet can also be used with the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 in

the WLAN.

 Support of the WLAN standards 802.11b/g with WEP and WPA-PSK

The INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 supports the WLAN standards 802.11b/g. The

INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 also supports the encryption of the data transmis-

sion in the WLAN with the WPA-PSK and WEP methods. With the WEP

method, the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 will support key lengths of 64 and 128

bit

 Configuration via the web interface

All functions of the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 can be configured and set via a

web interface. The access to the web interface is protected with a user

name and password query.

 Digital Switch Outputs and Inputs

The INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 has two potential-free switch outputs, which

can be used to switch other functions in an application. The INSYS WLAN

bridge 2.1 also has three inputs, whose status can be transmitted to an-

other INSYS device with digital inputs and outputs via a network connec-

tion.

 IO tunnelling

The status of an input or output of the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 can be

transmitted to other INSYS devices with IP tunnelling via a network con-

nection. This means that if the input at the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1

changes its status, the status of the output of the device which is con-

nected via IO tunnelling is changed as well.

 Firmware update via web interface

The firmware of the INSYS WLAN bridge 2.1 can be updated via the web in-

terface. An update can be performed locally or remotely.
