WPA™/WPA2™
The configuration options are the same for all of the
WPA™ and WPA2™ options. WPA2-AES is the strongest
security method. If all of the wireless devices on your
network support this option, it is recommended that you
select it.
WPA Authentication
One of the following WPA™ key
selection methods should be specified if WPA™ or WPA2™
security method is used:
•
PSK
Pre-shared Key method (selected by default).
•
EAP
EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol)
IEEE 802.1x authentication method. This method is
commonly used in Enterprise networks.
PSK
WPA Preshared Key
A passphrase needs to be specified
when the Pre‑shared Key method is selected. The
pre-shared key is an alpha-numeric password between
8 and 63 characters long. Click Show to see the actual
characters being typed.
See “MAC ACL” on page 17 for more information on
this option.
EAP
EAP - Station Mode
WPA Anonymous Identity
(Only applicable in Station
or Station WDS mode with EAP-TTLS.) Identification
credential (also known as identity) used by the supplicant
for EAP authentication.
WPA User Name
(Only applicable in Station and Station
WDS mode.) Identification credential (also known as
anonymous identity) used by the supplicant for EAP
tunneled authentication (EAP-TTLS) in unencrypted form.
WPA User Password
(Only applicable in Station and
Station WDS mode.) Password credential used by the
supplicant for EAP authentication.
EAP - Access Point Mode
Radius Server IP
Specifies the RADIUS Server’s IP address.
RADIUS is a networking protocol providing centralized
Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)
management for computers in order to connect to, and
use a network service.
Radius Server Port
Specifies the RADIUS Server’s UDP
port. The most commonly used port is 1812, but that
depends on the RADIUS Server you are using.
Radius Server Secret
Specifies the password. A shared
secret is a case-sensitive text string used to validate
communication between two RADIUS devices. Click Show
to see the actual characters being typed.
See “MAC ACL” on page 17
for more information on
this option.
Note:
When connecting devices in AP-WDS-to-
AP-WDS mode, the WPA/WPA2 security methods
will not function. When connecting AP-WDS
devices to another AP-WDS device use none or
the WEP security method. However, this may
compromise the security of your network. In case
of connecting STA-WDS clients to an AP-WDS
device, all security methods are available and
work properly.
