Configure the 60GHz SSID, Security mode, and Passphrase
AltoReach devices use the SSID and Passphrase to establish connections to other AltoReach devices. The Security mode enables encryption over the link.
By default, AltoReach devices have the following settings:
| Parameter | Default setting |
| SSID | AltoReach60 |
| Security mode | AES+GCMP |
| Passphrase | AltoReach60 |
In order to establish wireless communication, the access point/point-to-point master and remote devices must have the same settings for each of these options.
For the purpose of establishing an initial link, leave these at the default settings until links are established. Change these values after links are established.
To change the SSID, Security mode, and Passphrase:
To ensure connectivity, change these settings for any connected remote devices prior to changing them on the access point or master.
- Log into the AltoReach device as described in Connect to the AltoReach device.
- In the WebUI, click Configuration.
- Click Wireless.
- For SSID, type the new SSID.
- For Security mode, select either AES+GCMP or Open.
- For Passphrase, type the new passphrase.
