ProSAFE Dual-Band Wireless AC Access Points WAC720 and WAC730
•
Legacy 802.1X. Legacy 802.1X uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication but no data
encryption. For information about how to configure Legacy 802.1X, see
Enable Security Profiles
•
WPA and WPA-PSK (TKIP). Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption provides
strong data security with Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption. The very
strong authentication along with dynamic per-frame rekeying of WPA makes it virtually
impossible to compromise.
WPA uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication. For more information, see
and Enable Security Profiles
WPA2 With RADIUS
WPA-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication. For more information, see
Configure and Enable Security Profiles
WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
•
WPA2 and WPA2-PSK (AES). Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2 (WPA2) data encryption
provides strong data security with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. The
very strong authentication along with dynamic per-frame rekeying of WPA2 makes it
virtually impossible to compromise.
WPA2 uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication. For more information, see
and Enable Security Profiles
WPA2 With RADIUS
WPA2-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication. For more information, see
Configure and Enable Security Profiles
WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
•
WPA & WPA2 and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK mixed modes. These modes support data
encryption either with both WPA and WPA2 clients or with both WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK clients and provide the most reliable security.
WPA & WPA2 uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication. For more information, see
Configure and Enable Security Profiles
and WPA & WPA2 With RADIUS
WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication; for more
information, see
WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
Security Profiles
Security profiles let you configure unique security settings for each SSID on each radio of the
wireless access point. For each radio, the wireless access point supports up to eight security
profiles (BSSIDs) that you can configure on the individual Edit Wireless Network pages that
are accessible from the Edit Security Profile page (see
Profiles
on page 35).
