DESCRIPTION
RADIUS servers can require the MAC address in the Calling Station ID RADIUS attribute.
Select the separator the external server uses for the pairs in calling station MAC
addresses.
Select the case (upper or lower) the external server requires for letters in the calling
station MAC addresses.
Select this to enable 802.1x secure authentication.
Enter the interval (in seconds) between authentication requests. Enter a 0 for unlimited
requests.
Select this option to use a Pre-Shared Key with WPA encryption.
Enter a pre-shared key of between 8 and 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including
spaces and symbols) or 64 hexadecimal characters.
Select an encryption cipher type from the list.
• auto - This automatically chooses the best available cipher based on the cipher in
use by the wireless client that is attempting to make a connection.
• tkip - This is the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol encryption method added later to
the WEP encryption protocol to further secure. Not all wireless clients may support
this.
• aes - This is the Advanced Encryption Standard encryption method. It is a more
recent development over TKIP and considerably more robust. Not all wireless clients
may support this.
Enter the interval (in seconds) at which the AP updates the group WPA encryption key.
This field is available only when you set Security Mode to wpa2 or wpa2-mix and
enable 802.1x authentication.
Enable or Disable pre-authentication to allow the AP to send authentication
information to other APs on the network, allowing connected wireless clients to switch
APs without having to re-authenticate their network connection.
