Authentication
If WEP security suite is selected,
select one of these authentication
options which appear.
Shared
: Encryption keys of both parties are compared as a form of
authentication. If mismatches occur, no connection establishes.
Open
: A connection establishes without first checking for matching
encryption keys. If keys do not match, however, data becomes garbled
and prevents connectivity on the IP level.
If WPA or WPA2/IEEE 802.11i security suite is selected,
select one of
these authentication options which appear:
PSK:
In pre-shared keying, the same key must be configured both on the
SGX 5150 side and on the access point side.
IEEE 802.1X:
This authentication method communicates with a RADIUS
authentication server that is part of the network. The RADIUS server
matches the credentials sent by the SGX 5150 unit with an internal
database. If IEEE 802.1X is selected under authentication type, select the
protocol to use to authenticate the WLAN client.
PMF
Select one of the following options regarding protected management frames
(PMF):
Disable
Optional
Required
Note:
This option is available when the WPA2/WPA mixed mode suite and
the IEEE 802.1x authentication settings are selected.
Key Type
Select a
Hex
or
Passphrase
key type after indicating the security suite type.
Key Size
If the WEP security suite is selected, then select
40 bits
or
104 bits
key size
in this field.
Passphrase
If Passphrase key type is selected, enter an alphanumeric phrase up to 63
characters in length in this field which becomes available. Spaces and
special characters are allowed. Check Show
Password
to show the
passphrase entered.
TX Key Index
If WEP security suite and Hex key type have been selected, then select the
TX key index from the drop-down menu, which becomes available.
For interoperability with some products that generate four identical keys
from a passphrase, this index must be one.
For Keys 1-4, enter one or more encryption keys in hexadecimal format.
Enter 10 hexadecimal digits (0-9, a-f) for WEP40 and 26 for WEP104. For
security reasons, the configured keys are not shown.
IEEE 802.1X
If IEEE 802.1X authentication is selected, choose a particular type:
LEAP
: type a User Name and Password, then select an Encryption.
EAP-TLS
: Type a Username.
EAP-TTLS
PEAP:
For PEAP Option, select a security protocol.
FAST:
If selected, select the Fast Option and Fast Provisioning options.
FAST Option
Select the FAST option from the drop-down menu:
MD5 (default)
MSCHAPV2
GTC
Note:
This option is available when the WPA2/WPA mixed mode suite and
the IEEE 802.1x authentication settings are selected.
