c. In the Shared Secret field, enter the password that the router must use to
communicate with the RADIUS server.
This password must be configured on the RADIUS server. This password is
used to authenticate the router (not a WiFi client) against the RADIUS server.
• WPA3-Personal [SAE]: This is the most secure personal authentication option.
WPA3 uses SAE encryption and allows only WiFi devices that support WPA3 to
connect to the network. WiFi devices that support WPA or WPA2 cannot connect
to the network.
When you select this option, additional fields display so that you can add a key.
Do the following:
a. In the Password (Network Key) field, enter the network key (password) that
you want to use.
It is a text string from 8 to 127 characters.
b. Write down the new password and keep it in a secure place for future
reference.
• WPA3 Enterprise: If your network is connected to a RADIUS server that can
provide authentication and your network includes WPA3 devices only, select this
radio button. WPA3 Enterprise can provide the highest level of security but WPA
and WPA2 devices cannot connect. Before a WiFi client can connect to the
network, the WiFi client must be configured on the RADIUS server and
authenticated against the RADIUS server. The router functions as the authenticator
between the WiFi client and the RADIUS server, which provides the actual
authentication.
When you select this option, additional fields display so that you can specify the
RADIUS server. Do the following:
a. In the IP address field, enter the IP address of the RADIUS server to which
the router must connect.
b. In the Port field, enter the port number that the router must use to
communicate with the RADIUS server.
By default, the port number is 1812.
c. In the Shared Secret field, enter the password that the router must use to
communicate with the RADIUS server.
This password must be configured on the RADIUS server. This password is
used to authenticate the router (not a WiFi client) against the RADIUS server.
• WPA2-Personal [AES] + WPA3-Personal: This option allows WiFi devices that
support WPA2 (which is the same as WPA2-PSK) or WPA3 to join the network.
WiFi devices that support WPA cannot connect to the network. This option uses
SAE and AES encryption. WPA3 (which uses SAE) is more secure than WPA2
(which uses AES).
