D-Link Unified Access System User Manual
If you select WPA/WPA2 as the security mode, additional fields display, as Figure 46 shows.
Figure 46. WPA Personal Configuration
Table 14 describes the configuration options for the Static WPA security mode.
Table 14.
Static WPA
Field Description
WPA Personal or
WPA Enterprise WPA/WPA2 Personal uses static key management. You manually configure
the same keys to encrypt data on both the wireless client and the AP.
WPA/WPA2 Enterprise uses a RADIUS server and dynamically generated
keys to encrypt client-to-AP traffic. WPA Enterprise is more secure than
WPA Personal, but you need a RADIUS server to manage the keys.
If you select WPA Enterprise, the screen refreshes and a different set of
fields appear (described later in this table). The AP uses the global RADIUS
server IP address and secret or the RADIUS server settings you specify for
the VAP. The AP acts as the RADIUS client and must be configured as a
client in the RADIUS server.
For information about how to configure the global RADIUS server settings
on the Unified Switch, see
“Configuring AAA and RADIUS Settings” on
page 85.
WPA Versions Select the types of client stations you want to support:
• WPA. If all client stations on the network support the original WPA but
none support the newer WPA2 , then select WPA.
• WPA2. If all client stations on the network support WPA2 , we suggest
using WPA2 which provides the best security per the IEEE 802.11i
standard.
• WPA and WPA2. If you have a mix of clients, some of which support
WPA2 and others which support only the original WPA , select both of
the boxes. This lets both WPA and WPA2 client stations associate and
authenticate, but uses the more robust WPA2 for clients who support it.
This WPA configuration allows more interoperability, at the expense of
some security.
