Configuring Client Authentication
Each user account needs to define the protocol and the credentials used to authenticate a user. When you start and stop on a
port, you are enabling and disabling the authentication established here.
Note: Fields will be grayed out if not relevant to the selected protocol.
On the main window, tap Client > Configure and the User tab opens.
You can also access the User tab from Wireless Networks Tab (see page 7-7). On that tab window, double-tap a network in the
Configured Networks section, and tap View on the Profile Info Tab (see page 7-9).
Complete the:
• User Tab (see page 7-12)
• System Tab (see page 7-14)
• Server Tab (see page 7-15)
User Tab
Enter the credentials used to authenticate a user.
Field Description
Profile Multiple user credential profiles can be created for use when the user
roams from one network to another. Select a profile from the list and
configure the profile in the fields that follow.
•
Tapping Add permits new profiles to be added to the list. A window
appears where you can enter a name for the new profile.
• Enter a Profile name and tap OK . The name entered appears in
the Profile drop-down list.
• Tapping Delete deletes authentication profiles. To be deleted, a
profile cannot be assigned to a configured network.
Identity This is the 802.1X identity supplied to the authenticator. The identity value can be up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive. For tunneled authentication protocols such as TTLS and PEAP, this
identity (called the Phase 1 identity) is sent outside the protection of the encrypted tunnel. Therefore,
this field should not contain a true identity, but the identity “anonymous” and any desired realm (e.g.
anonymous@myrealm.com) instead. For TTLS and PEAP, true user credentials (Phase 2 identity) are
entered in the Tunneled authentication section.
When used with PEAP and the .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2, this field must contain the identity
used in both Phase I and Phase II. The Phase II identity field is ignored.
Password This is the password used for MD5-Challenge or LEAP authentication. It may contain up to 63 ASCII
characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.
