802.11i (WPA2)
The IEEE 802.11i is a new standard that
enhances the 802.11 MAC security and
authentication by stronger encryption,
authentication, and key management. The
WPA2 and 802.11i are virtually identical. The
WPA2 is the Wi-Fi Alliance base on the IEEE
802.11i and runs a certification program that
grants the WPA2 brand based on equipment’s
support of the important feature of 802.11i.
Besides the Pre-authentication function, setting
WPA2 is most same as WPA,
-
Pre-authentication
Enable pre-authentication to allow a client
to authenticate in advance with the AP
before the client is associated with it.
Allowing the AP to pre-authenticate a client decreases the transition time when a client roams
between APs.
Once you have selected the options you will use, click Apply to save all setting.
6.3 Wireless VLAN
When VLAN is enabled, all data coming out the WAN port is VLAN-tagged, which means an external
network unit such as router, switch , or a VLAN-enable computer had to be sure to terminate the VLAN
traffic. Data originating from or targeting to wireless network client is tagged with the VLAN ID
corresponding to an SSID it is associated with. Data generated by an Access Point itself is tagged with
the management VLAN ID.
To create a new VLAN, enter a VLAN ID (range form 1 to 4094) and an SSID. Set the security to None,
Static, or IEEE 802.11i and WPA.
After you create a VLAN you can modify it by selecting the VLAN from existing VLAN list.
