AWK-5232
Web Console Configuration
3-22
WLAN Certification Settings
(for EAP-TLS in Redundant Client,
Client or Slave mode only)
When EAP-TLS is used, a WLAN Certificate will be required at the client end to support WPA/WPA2-Enterprise.
The AWK-5232 can support the PKCS #12, also known as Personal Information Exchange Syntax Standard,
certificate formats that define file formats commonly used to store private keys with accompanying public key
certificates, protected with a password-based symmetric key.
Current Status displays information for the current WLAN certificate, which has been imported into the
AWK-5232. Nothing will be shown if no certificate is available.
Certificate issued to: shows the certificate user
Certificate issued by: shows the certificate issuer
Certificate expiration date: indicates when the certificate gets invalid
You can import a new WLAN certificate in Import WLAN Certificate by following these steps in order:
1.
Input the corresponding password (or key) in the Certificate private password field. Then click Submit
to set the password.
2.
You can see the password displayed in the Certificate private password field. Then click on the Browse
button in Select certificate/key file and select the certificate file.
3.
Click Upload Certificate File to import the certificate file. If it succeeds, you can see the information
uploaded in Current Certificate. If it fails, you may need to return to step 1 to set the password correctly
and then import the certificate file again.
NOTE
The WLAN certificate will remain after the AWK-5232 reboots. Even though it is expired, it can still be seen on
Current Certificate.
Advanced Settings
Several advanced functions are available to increase the functionality of your AWK-5232 and wireless network
system. The DHCP server helps you deploy wireless clients efficiently. Packet filters provide security
mechanisms, such as firewalls, in different network layers. Moreover, the AWK-5232 can support STP/RSTP
protocol to increase the reliability across the entire network. In addition, SNMP support can ease the network
management via SNMP protocols.
