SSID
Use Default WPA/WPA2 PSK Settings: (select)
By default, when a HiveAP hosts a WPA/WPA2 PSK (Personal) SSID, it negotiations with clients over
the use of WPA or WPA2 for key management and TKIP or CCMP (AES) for encryption, and uses
whichever methods each client supports. Also, the PSK text string is in ASCII format by default.
Key Value and Confirm Value: CmFwbo1121 (To see the text strings that you enter, clear the Obscure Password
check box.)
With these settings, the HiveAP and its clients can use either WPA or WPA2 for key management,
CCMP (AES) or TKIP for data encryption, and the preshared key "CmFwbo1121" as the pairwise
master key from which they each generate pairwise transient keys.
Enable Captive Web Portal: (clear)
Enable MAC Authentication: (clear)
User profile assigned to users that associate with this SSID: default-profile
The predefined user profile "default-profile" applies the standard Aerohive Quality of Service level
through the predefined QoS policy "def-user-qos" and assigns user traffic to VLAN 1.
SSID Broadcast Band: 2.4 GHz (11n/b/g)
HiveAPs have two radios: a 2.4 GHz radio, which supports 802.11n/b/g, and a 5 GHz radio, which
supports 802.11n/a. On all HiveAP models except the HiveAP 110, both radios can function
concurrently. This setting broadcasts the SSID on the wifi0 interface, which is bound to the 2.4 GHz
radio. (There is an assumption that your clients support at least one of the following IEEE
standards: 802.11n, 802.11g, or 802.11b.)
As will be seen later in this chapter, one HiveAP will be deployed as a mesh point; that is, it will not
have an Ethernet connection but will connect to the wired network over a wireless backhaul link
through another HiveAP that does have an Ethernet connection (see
"Example 5: Assigning the
Configuration to HiveAPs" on page 135
). Because of this, the HiveAPs must use one radio for
wireless backhaul communications and the other radio for client access. By default, both the 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz radios are in access mode.
In the series of examples in this chapter, you set the 5 GHz radio in backhaul mode, and the 2.4 GHz
radio in access mode. Therefore, you assign the SSID to the 2.4 GHz band.
To see how the different SSID settings determine the way that the HiveAP advertises the SSID and how clients form
associations with it, see
