EAP-PEAP security is designed for wireless environments where it is necessary to transmit data securely over a wireless network.

EAP-TTLS

In the Wireless Security: Enterprise Mode popup window (FIG. 62), press the Security Type field to select EAP-TTLS.
TTLS (EAP Tunneled Transport Layer Security) is an authentication method that does not use a client certificate to authenticate the
panel. However. this method is more secure than PEAP because it does not broadcast the identity of the user. Setup is similar to
PEAP, but differs in the following areas:
An anonymous identity must be specified until the secure tunnel between the panel and the Radius server is setup to

transfer the real identity of the user.
There is no end-user ability to select from the different types of PEAP.

Additional Inner Authentication choices are available to the end-user.

EAP-TTLS security is designed for wireless environments where the Radius server needs to validate directly the identity of the client
(panel) before allowing it access to the network. This validation is done by tunneling a connection through the AP and directly
between the panel and the Radius server. Once the client is identified and then validated, the Radius server disconnects the tunnel
and allows the panel to access the network directly via the target AP.
EAP-TTLS
SSID:
MVP-5200i Modero® ViewPoint® Touch Panel with Intercom - Instruction Manual
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target AP. The SSID is a unique name used by
the AP, and is assigned to all panels on that network. An SSID is required by the AP before the panel is permitted to
join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in the wireless network.
• With EAP security, the SSID of the AP must be entered. If it is left blank, the panel will try to connect to the first
access point detected that supports EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
detected AP may be connected to a RADIUS server, which may not support this EAP type and/or have the
proper user identities configured.
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter an EAP Identity string (used by the panel to identify itself to an
Authentication (RADIUS) Server).
Note: This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured server or workstation. This works in
tandem with the Password string, which is similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
Typically, this is in the form of a username such as jdoe@amx.com.
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the network password string specified for the user entered within the
Identity field (used by the panel to identify itself to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server)
Note: This information is similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
to enter the name of the certificate authority file which is used to validate the server certificate.This field is
optional.
If a server certificate is used, it should first be downloaded into the panel and the Certif icate Authority field should
then be set to the name of that certificate file. No file path should be used for this setting as all certificates are
stored in a specific directory that the user cannot control or change.
Use the on-screen keyboard's Clear button to erase completely any previously stored network path information.
When pressed, this field cycles through the choices of available PEAP: PEAPv0, PEAPv1, or
PEAPv1 w/peaplabel=1.
When pressed, this field cycles through the choices of available Inner Authentication mechanisms supported by
the Devicescape Secure Wireless Client. The most commonly used are: MSCHAPv2 and GTC.
• MSCHAPv2 (used with PEAPv0)
• GTC (used with PEAPv1)
• OTP
• MD5
• Cancel - discard changes and return to the previous page.
• Save - store the new security information, apply changes, and return to the previous page.
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target AP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the AP, and is assigned to all panels on that network. An SSID is required by the
AP before the panel is permitted to join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in the wireless network.
• With EAP security, the SSID of the AP must be entered. If it is left blank, the panel will try to connect to the first
access point detected that supports EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
