Method and apparatus for auto setting security mechanism of WLAN
First Claim
1. A method for auto setting WLAN security mechanism, which comprises:
- a normal step, which executes communicating negotiation between an access point (AP) and a station (ST);
a security setting step, which includes;
a defining step, in which said AP defines a plurality of parameters;
a connecting step, which enables said ST to connect to said AP, which is enabled to broadcast the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packages periodically, and sets up the WLAN security settings.

Abstract
Disclosed is a method for auto setting security mechanism of WLAN. The method comprises a normal step, which enables a station and an access point to execute the communicating negotiation between them, and a security setting step, which is used to execute the security mechanism setting automatically. Moreover, the security setting step comprises a defining step, which defines a plurality of parameters of the access point and a connecting step, which enables the station to connect to the access point, the access point to broadcast the UDP packages periodically, and sets the WLAN security settings. After the security setting step, the stations and access points execute the normal step again. Another aspect of the present invention is an apparatus for auto setting security mechanism of WLAN.

12. An apparatus for auto setting WLAN security mechanism, which comprises:
-
an access point (AP), having a defining module;
a station (ST), having a connecting module;
wherein said AP and ST execute a normal step to establish communicating negotiation between said AP and ST;
then said AP and ST execute a security setting step, in which said defining module defines a plurality of parameters; and
next said connecting module connects to said AP according to said parameters and sets up the WLAN security settings;
after that said AP broadcasts the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packages periodically. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
