This is the most secure and most complex system.

Wireless Access Point.
Mode
On each PC, the mode must be set to
Infrastructure
.
SSID (ESSID)
This must match the value used on the Wireless Access Point.
The default value is

Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
Authentication
Each client must obtain a Certificate which is used for authentication for
the Radius Server.
Encryption
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA2 standard. Keys are
automatically generated, so no key input is required.

mode, the Radius Server on your network must be configured as
