DESCRIPTION
This is the security key used to encrypt communications
between the NWA and its managed APs. This key is used to
encrypt DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security)
transmissions. Enter 8~32 English keyboard characters.
The proprietary AutoPSK protocol transfers the DTLS key
from the NWA to the managed APs automatically.
This controls whether the NWA manages all CAPWAP-
enabled APs that transmit management request packets, or
requires you to select which APs to manage.
• Select Manual to choose which APs to manage (select
the APs you want to manage in the
Lists
screen).
• Select Always Accept to have the NWA manage any AP
on your network that transmits a CAPWAP request for
management.
