DESCRIPTION
Select 802.1x + Dynamic WEP from the drop-down list.
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and
passwords in order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 10
and 65535 seconds.
If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the
reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority.
The Vantage CNM automatically disconnects a wireless station from the
wireless network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs
to send the username and password again before it can use the wireless
network again. Some wireless clients may prompt users for a username
and password; other clients may use saved login credentials. In either
case, there is usually a short delay while the wireless client logs in to the
wireless network again.
This value is usually smaller when the wireless network is keeping track
of how much time each wireless station is connected to the wireless
network (for example, using an authentication server). If the wireless
network is not keeping track of this information, you can usually set this
value higher to reduce the number of delays caused by logging in again.
Click RADIUS to go to the RADIUS screen where you can configure the
Vantage CNM to check an external RADIUS server.
Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

characters (ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F")
preceded by 0x for each key.
If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13
characters (ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F")
preceded by 0x for each key.
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from
eavesdropping by unauthorized wireless users. The values for the keys
must be set up exactly the same on the access points as they are on the
wireless stations.
