Configure the WPA1 Enterprise type fields as per the following description:
Configuring WPA1 Enterprise - EAP-TLS
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is an authentication framework that provides common functions
and a method to negotiate a desired authentication medium. EAP-Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS) uses
client side certificates to ensure that security is not compromised.
See
Figure 3.7
for WPA1 Enterprise EAP-TLS security fields.

Figure 3.7 WPA1 Type Screen - Enterprise
WPA1 uses TKIP algorithm:
• TKIP – Defines a 'wrapper' that goes around an existing WEP encryption
algorithm. TKIP comprises the same encryption engine and RC4 algorithm
defined for WEP. However, the key used for encryption in TKIP is 128 bits
long.
TKIP changes the key used for each packet. The key is created by mixing
together a combination of things, including a base key (called a Pairwise
Transient Key), the MAC address of the transmitting station, and the serial
number for the packet.
The User ID for authentication.
