WPA Enterprise

WPA Enterprise with RADIUS is an implementation of the Wi-Fi Alliance IEEE 802.11i standard, which includes CCMP
(AES), and TKIP mechanisms. The Enterprise mode requires the use of a RADIUS server to authenticate users.
This security mode is backwards-compatible with wireless clients that support the original WPA.

Description
Enter a value to set the interval at which the broadcast (group) key is refreshed for clients
associated to this VAP (the default is 300).
The valid range is 0–86400 seconds. A value of 0 indicates that the broadcast key is not
refreshed.

Description
Select the types of client stations you want to support:
•) WPA. If all client stations on the network support the original WPA but none support the
newer WPA2, then select WPA.
•) WPA2. If all client stations on the network support WPA2, we suggest using WPA2
which provides the best security per the IEEE 802.11i standard.
•) WPA and WPA2. If you have a mix of clients, some of which support WPA2 and others
which support only the original WPA, select both WPA and WPA2. This lets both WPA
and WPA2 client stations associate and authenticate, but uses the more robust WPA2
for clients who support it. This WPA configuration allows more interoperability, at the
expense of some security.
If for WPA Versions you select only WPA2 or both WPA and WPA2, you can enable pre-
authentication for WPA2 clients.
Click Enable pre-authentication if you want WPA2 wireless clients to send pre-
authentication packet. The pre-authentication information will be relayed from the AP
the client is currently using to the target AP. Enabling this feature can help speed up
authentication for roaming clients who connect to multiple APs.
This option does not apply if you selected WPA for WPA Versions because the original WPA
does not support this feature.
