Chapter 2 Wireless Security Checklist


Chapter 2:Wireless Security Checklist

Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, sohomes with high-speed Internet access are adopting them

at a rapid pace. Because wireless networking operates bysending inormation over radio waves, it can be morevulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network.Like signals rom your cellular or cordless phones, signalsrom your wireless network can also be intercepted. Sinceyou cannot physically prevent someone rom connectingto your wireless network, you need to take some additionalsteps to keep your network secure.

1. Change the default wirelessnetwork name or SSID

Wireless devices have a deault wireless network nameor Service Set Identiier (SSID) set by the actory. Thisis the name o your wireless network, and can be upto 32 characters in length. Linksys wireless productsuse linksys as the deault wireless network name. Youshould change the wireless network name to somethingunique to distinguish your wireless network rom otherwireless networks that may exist around you, but do notuse personal inormation (such as your Social Securitynumber) because this inormation may be available oranyone to see when browsing or wireless networks.

2. Change the default password

For wireless products such as access points and routers,you will be asked or a password when you want to changetheir settings. These devices have a deault password setby the actory. The Linksys deault password is admin.Hackers know these deaults and may try to use themto access your wireless device and change your network settings. To thwart any unauthorized changes, customizethe device’s password so it will be hard to guess.

3. Enable MAC address filtering

Linksys routers give you the ability to enable Media AccessControl (MAC) address iltering. The MAC address is aunique series o numbers and letters assigned to everynetworking device. With MAC address iltering enabled,wireless network access is provided solely or wirelessdevices with speciic MAC addresses. For example, you canspeciy the MAC address o each computer in your homeso that only those computers can access your wirelessnetwork.

4. Enable encryption

Encryption protects data transmitted over a wirelessnetwork. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) and WiredEquivalency Privacy (WEP) oer dierent levels o security

or wireless communication. Currently, devices that areWi-Fi certiied are required to support WPA2, but are notrequired to support WEP.

A network encrypted with WPA/WPA2 is more securethan a network encrypted with WEP, because WPA/WPA2uses dynamic key encryption. To protect the inormationas it passes over the airwaves, you should enable thehighest level o encryption supported by your network equipment.

WEP is an older encryption standard and may be theonly option available on some older devices that do not

support WPA.

General Network Security Guidelines

Wireless network security is useless i the underlyingnetwork is not secure.

Password protect all computers on the network and•

individually password protect sensitive iles.

Change passwords on a regular basis.•

Install anti-virus sotware and personal irewall•

sotware.

Disable ile sharing (peer-to-peer). Some applications•

may open ile sharing without your consent and/orknowledge.

Additional Security Tips

Keep wireless routers, access points, or gateways away•

rom exterior walls and windows.

Turn wireless routers, access points, or gateways•

o when they are not being used (at night, duringvacations).

Use strong passphrases that are at least eight characters•

in length. Combine letters and numbers to avoid usingstandard words that can be ound in the dictionary.

This Wireless > Advanced Wireless Settings screen is usedto set up the Router’s advanced wireless unctions. Thesesettings should only be adjusted by an expert administratoras incorrect settings can reduce wireless perormance.

Wireless > Advanced Wireless Settings

Advanced Wireless

Authentication Type The deault is set to Auto, whichallows either Open System or Shared Key authenticationto be used. With Open System authentication, the senderand the recipient do NOT use a WEP key or authentication.With Shared Key authentication, the sender and recipientuse a WEP key or authentication.

Basic Rate The Basic Rate setting is not actually one rate

o transmission but a series o rates at which the Routercan transmit. The Router will advertise its Basic Rate to theother wireless devices in your network, so they know whichrates will be used. The Router will also advertise that it willautomatically select the best rate or transmission. Thedeault setting is Default, when the Router can transmitat all standard wireless rates (1-2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps,18Mbps, and 24Mbps). Other options are 1-2Mbps, oruse with older wireless technology, and All, when theRouter can transmit at all wireless rates. The Basic Rateis not the actual rate o data transmission. I you want tospeciy the Router’s rate o data transmission, conigurethe Transmission Rate setting.

Transmission Rate The rate o data transmission shouldbe set depending on the speed o your wireless network.You can select rom a range o transmission speeds, or youcan select Auto to have the Router automatically use theastest possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback eature. Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best possibleconnection speed between the Router and a wirelessclient. The deault value is Auto.

CTS Protection Mode CTS (Clear-To-Send) ProtectionMode should remain disabled unless you are having severeproblems with your Wireless-G products not being able

to transmit to the Router in an environment with heavy802.11b traic. This unction boosts the Router’s abilityto catch all Wireless-G transmissions but will severelydecrease perormance.

Frame Burst Enabling this option should provide yournetwork with greater perormance, depending on the

manuacturer o your wireless products. To turn on theFrame Burst option, select Enable. The deault is Disable.

Beacon Interval The deault value is 100. Enter a valuebetween 1 and 65,535 milliseconds. The Beacon Intervalvalue indicates the requency interval o the beacon. Abeacon is a packet broadcast by the Router to synchronizethe wireless network.

DTIM Interval This value, between 1 and 255, indicatesthe interval o the Delivery Traic Indication Message(DTIM). A DTIM ield is a countdown ield inormingclients o the next window or listening to broadcastand multicast messages. When the Router has buered

broadcast or multicast messages or associated clients, itsends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its clientshear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcastand multicast messages. The deault value is 1.

Fragmentation Threshold This value speciies themaximum size or a packet beore data is ragmentedinto multiple packets. I you experience a high packeterror rate, you may slightly increase the FragmentationThreshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too lowmay result in poor network perormance. Only minorreduction o the deault value is recommended. In mostcases, it should remain at its deault value o 2346.

RTS Threshold Should you encounter inconsistent datalow, only minor reduction o the deault value, 2347, isrecommended. I a network packet is smaller than thepreset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism willnot be enabled. The Router sends Request to Send (RTS)rames to a particular receiving station and negotiatesthe sending o a data rame. Ater receiving an RTS, thewireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) rameto acknowledge the right to begin transmission. The RTSThreshold value should remain at its deault value o 2347.

Schedule 2

I this Linksys product contains open source sotwarelicensed under Version 2 o the “GNU General PublicLicense” then the license terms below in this Schedule 2will apply to that open source sotware. The license termsbelow in this Schedule 2 are rom the public web site athttp://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Sotware Foundation, Inc.51 Franklin Street, Fith Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatimcopies o this license document, but changing it is notallowed.

Preamble

The licenses or most sotware are designed to take awayyour reedom to share and change it. By contrast, theGNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your

I the modiied program normally reads commandsc.interactively when run, you must cause it, whenstarted running or such interactive use in the mostordinary way, to print or display an announcementincluding an appropriate copyright notice anda notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying

that you provide a warranty) and that users mayredistribute the program under these conditions,and telling the user how to view a copy o this License. (Exception: i the Program itsel isinteractive but does not normally print such anannouncement, your work based on the Programis not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modiied work asa whole. I identiiable sections o that work are notderived rom the Program, and can be reasonablyconsidered independent and separate works inthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do notapply to those sections when you distribute them asseparate works. But when you distribute the samesections as part o a whole which is a work based onthe Program, the distribution o the whole must be onthe terms o this License, whose permissions or otherlicensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to eachand every part regardless o who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent o this section to claim rightsor contest your rights to work written entirely by you;rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control thedistribution o derivative or collective works based onthe Program.

In addition, mere aggregation o another work notbased on the Program with the Program (or with awork based on the Program) on a volume o a storageor distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope o this License.

You may copy and distribute the Program (or a3.work based on it, under Section 2) in object code orexecutable orm under the terms o Sections 1 and 2above provided that you also do one o the ollowing:

Accompany it with the complete correspondinga.machine-readable source code, which must bedistributed under the terms o Sections 1 and 2above on a medium customarily used or sotwareinterchange; or,

Accompany it with a written oer, valid or at leastb.three years, to give any third party, or a chargeno more than your cost o physically perormingsource distribution, a complete machine-readablecopy o the corresponding source code, to bedistributed under the terms o Sections 1 and 2above on a medium customarily used or sotwareinterchange; or,

Accompany it with the inormation you received asc.to the oer to distribute corresponding source code.(This alternative is allowed only or noncommercialdistribution and only i you received the programin object code or executable orm with such anoer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code or a work means the preerred ormo the work or making modiications to it. For anexecutable work, complete source code means allthe source code or all modules it contains, plus anyassociated interace deinition iles, plus the scriptsused to control compilation and installation o theexecutable. However, as a special exception, the sourcecode distributed need not include anything that isnormally distributed (in either source or binary orm)with the major components (compiler, kernel, and soon) o the operating system on which the executableruns, unless that component itsel accompanies theexecutable.

I distribution o executable or object code is madeby oering access to copy rom a designated place,then oering equivalent access to copy the sourcecode rom the same place counts as distribution o the source code, even though third parties are notcompelled to copy the source along with the objectcode.

You may not copy, modiy, sublicense, or distribute4.the Program except as expressly provided underthis License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modiy,sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and willautomatically terminate your rights under this License.However, parties who have received copies, or rights,rom you under this License will not have their licensesterminated so long as such parties remain in ullcompliance.

You are not required to accept this License, since you5.have not signed it. However, nothing else grants youpermission to modiy or distribute the Program or itsderivative works. These actions are prohibited by law i you do not accept this License. Thereore, by modiyingor distributing the Program (or any work based on theProgram), you indicate your acceptance o this Licenseto do so, and all its terms and conditions or copying,

distributing or modiying the Program or works basedon it.

Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work 6.based on the Program), the recipient automaticallyreceives a license rom the original licensor to copy,distribute or modiy the Program subject to theseterms and conditions. You may not impose any urtherrestrictions on the recipients’ exercise o the rightsgranted herein. You are not responsible or enorcingcompliance by third parties to this License.

I, as a consequence o a court judgment or allegation7.o patent inringement or or any other reason (notlimited to patent issues), conditions are imposed onyou (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise)that contradict the conditions o this License, they donot excuse you rom the conditions o this License. I

you cannot distribute so as to satisy simultaneouslyyour obligations under this License and any otherpertinent obligations, then as a consequence youmay not distribute the Program at all. For example,i a patent license would not permit royalty-reeredistribution o the Program by all those who receivecopies directly or indirectly through you, then the onlyway you could satisy both it and this License would beto rerain entirely rom distribution o the Program.

I any portion o this section is held invalid orunenorceable under any particular circumstance,the balance o the section is intended to apply andthe section as a whole is intended to apply in other

circumstances.

It is not the purpose o this section to induce you toinringe any patents or other property right claims orto contest validity o any such claims; this section hasthe sole purpose o protecting the integrity o the reesotware distribution system, which is implementedby public license practices. Many people havemade generous contributions to the wide range o sotware distributed through that system in relianceon consistent application o that system; it is up tothe author/donor to decide i he or she is willing todistribute sotware through any other system and a

licensee cannot impose that choice.This section is intended to make thoroughly clearwhat is believed to be a consequence o the rest o thisLicense.

I the distribution and/or use o the Program is8.restricted in certain countries either by patents or bycopyrighted interaces, the original copyright holderwho places the Program under this License may add anexplicit geographical distribution limitation excludingthose countries, so that distribution is permitted onlyin or among countries not thus excluded. In such case,this License incorporates the limitation as i written in

the body o this License.The Free Sotware Foundation may publish revised9.and/or new versions o the General Public Licenserom time to time. Such new versions will be similar inspirit to the present version, but may dier in detail toaddress new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number.I the Program speciies a version number o thisLicense which applies to it and “any later version”, youhave the option o ollowing the terms and conditionseither o that version or o any later version publishedby the Free Sotware Foundation. I the Program does

not speciy a version number o this License, youmay choose any version ever published by the FreeSotware Foundation.

I you wish to incorporate parts o the Program into10.other ree programs whose distribution conditions aredierent, write to the author to ask or permission. For

sotware which is copyrighted by the Free SotwareFoundation, write to the Free Sotware Foundation; wesometimes make exceptions or this. Our decision willbe guided by the two goals o preserving the ree statuso all derivatives o our ree sotware and o promotingthe sharing and reuse o sotware generally.

NO WARRANTY

BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,11.THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THEEXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPTWHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT

HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THEPROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANYKIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OFMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULARPURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY ANDPERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOUASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR12.AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR

REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE,BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANYGENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIALDAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TOUSE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TOLOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATEOR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES ORA FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANYOTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHERPARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OFSUCH DAMAGES.
