58 Wireless configuration
WPA/WPA2 enterprise
If you have a mix of wireless clients, some of which support WPA2 (AES) and others which
support only the original WPA (TKIP), select the
WPA/WPA2 Enterprise
security mode. This
setting enables both WPA and WPA2 wireless clients to associate to the router, but uses the
more robust WPA2 for clients that support it. This security option allows more interoperability,
at the expense of some security.
You must set up at least one configured RADIUS server in your network before enabling WPA/
WPA2 security. For RADIUS server settings, see
“Configuring RADIUS settings” on page 59 .
WPA/WPA2 security includes the following settings:
Authentication Mode
Select WPA/WPA2 Enterprise to display all settings for mixed WPA/WPA2 security.
Encryption Type
The TKIP/AES type is the only encryption available for mixed WPA/WPA2 security. In mixed
mode, the unicast encryption (TKIP or AES) is negotiated for each client as they associate with
the network.
Group Key Interval
Enter the interval at which the broadcast (group) key is refreshed for clients associated with this
VAP interface (the default is 3600 seconds). The valid range is 60 to 86400 seconds. Specify
a value of 0 to disable the refreshing of broadcast keys.
Session Key Interval
Enter the interval at which the router refreshes session (unicast) keys for each client associated
with the VAP interface. To enable session key refreshing, specify a value in the range of 60 to
86400 seconds. Specify a value of 0 to disable session key refresh.
WPA/WPA2-PSK mixed
If your network does not have a RADIUS server, and you need to support a mix of wireless
clients, some of which support WPA2 (AES) and others which support only the original WPA
(TKIP), select the
WPA/WPA2-PSK security option. The WPA/WPA2-PSK option is typically
used for home or small business networks.
This setting enables both WPA and WPA2 wireless clients to associate to the router, but uses
the more robust WPA2 for clients that support it. This security option allows more
interoperability, at the expense of some security.
