This section explains how to configure wireless security on your computer. Honeywell
recommends that you implement WPA2 security using PSK (Personal) or 802.1X
(Enterprise) key management as appropriate.
You must use either Wireless or Microsoft security to implement your security solution.
For details, see the next section,
eywell recommends that you always implement WPA2 security using PSK (Personal) or
802.1X (Enterprise) key management.
If you are using WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, or 802.1x security, this section also
assumes that your authentication server and authenticators are properly configured.
Note: Your security choice does not depend on your authentication server. For example, you can
choose Wireless security if you use Microsoft Active Directory® to issue certificates.

Choose Between Microsoft and Wireless Security

The computer supports both Wireless and Microsoft security, which dynamically select
wireless networks based on your preferences. The option you choose depends on your
network security needs.
