WPA/WPA2-Enterprise (for AP mode)
By selecting
WPA type
as
Enterprise
, you can use
EAP
(
Extensible Authentication Protocol
), a
framework authentication protocol used by 802.1X to provide network authentication. In these
Enterprise-level security modes, a back-end RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service) server is needed if IEEE 802.1X functionality is enabled in WPA /WPA2. The IEEE
802.1X protocol also offers the possibility of carrying out an efficient connection authentication in
a large-scaled network. It is not necessary to exchange keys or passphrases.
