Nuclias Connect
Introduction
Nuclias Connect is D-Link’s centralized management solution for Small-to-Medium-Sized Business (SMB) networks. Nuclias Connect makes
it easier to analyze, automate, congure, optimize, scale, and secure your network — delivering the convenience of an Enterprise-wide
management solution, at an SMB price. Nuclias Connect gives you the nancial and technical exibility to expand from a small network to a
larger one of up to 1,000 Access Points (APs), while retaining a robust and centralized management system. With its intuitive Graphical User
Interface (GUI), a wealth of enhanced AP features, and a setup wizard that supports 11 languages, Nuclias Connect minimizes the hassle of
deployment, conguration, and administration tasks.
Deployable on a Windows server (or Linux via Docker), PC, or Smartphone (via lite management app) the Nuclias Connect free-to-download
software is capable of managing up to 1,000 APs without licensing charges, coupled with an inexpensive optional
hardware controller (DNH-100 Nuclias Connect Hub) suitable for remote locations. Through software-based monitoring and remote
management of all wireless Access Points (APs) on your network, Nuclias Connect oers tremendous exibility compared to traditional
hardware-based unied management systems. Conguration can be done remotely. Network trac analytics are available at a glance (in
whole or in part). Load Balancing, Airtime Fairness, and Localized Throttling are enabled.
Nuclias Connect supports multi-tenancy, so network administrators can grant localized management authority for local networks. In
addition, because APs can support 8 SSIDs per radio (16 SSIDs per dual band APs), administrators have the option of using one SSID to create
a guest network for visitors.
Nuclias Connect provides direct AP discovery and provisioning when it shares the same Layer-2/Layer-3 network with a given AP, allowing
users to nd APs and import proles with minimum eort, which can be applied as needed to groups or individual APs for even more
eective conguration.
Since Nuclias Connect’s software operates transparently on the network, an AP can be deployed anywhere in an NAT environment. Admins
can provide and manage a variety of distributed deployments, including settings and admin account conguration for each deployment.
Nuclias Connect allows for multiple user authentications while enabling specic access control congurations for each SSID, giving admins
the option of conguring separate internal networks for dierent subnets, while enabling more advanced Value-Added Services, such as
Captive Portal or Wi-Fi Hotspot.

Wireless security is a key concern for any wireless network. Unlike any other networking methods, wireless networks broadcast it’s presence for anyone to
connect to it. Today, wireless security has advanced to a level where it is virtually impenetrable.
There are mainly two forms of wireless encryption and they are called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WEP was the rst
security method developed. It is a low level encryption but better than now encryption. WPA is the newest encryption standard and with the advanced WPA3
standard, wireless networks have nally reach a point where the security is strong enough to give users peace of mind when installing wireless networks.
Wireless Security
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP Open System will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will return
a success message back to the wireless client. If the key does not match the one congured on the access point, the access point will deny the connection
request from the wireless client.

**Hexadecimal (HEX) digits consist of the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F.
*ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a code that represents English letters using
numbers ranging from 0-127.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA / WPA2 / WPA3)
WPA was created by the Wi-Fi Alliance to address the limitations and weaknesses found in WEP. This protocol is mainly based on the 802.11i
standard. There are also two variations found in WPA called WPA-Personal (PSK) and WPA-Enterprise (EAP).
WPA-EAP requires the user to install a RADIUS Server on the network for authentication.
WPA-Personal does not require the user to install a RADIUS Server on the network.
Comparing WPA-PSK with WPA-EAP, WPA-PSK is seen as a weaker authentication but comparing WPA-PSK to WEP, WPA-PSK is far more secure
than WEP. WPA-EAP is the highest level of wireless security a user can use for wireless today.
WPA2/WPA3 are upgrades of WPA. WPA2/WPA3 yet again solves some possible security issues found in WPA. WPA2/WPA3 have two variations
called WPA2/WPA3-Personal (PSK) and WPA2/WPA3-Enterprise (EAP) which are the same as found with WPA.

rate of the connected device. If there are obstacles or interference, the
AP will step down the rate. This option is enabled in Mixed 802.11b/g
