Enable Pre-Authentication - US Robotics Instant802 APSDK Administrator's Manual

3. Enable Pre-Authentication

If you set WPA versions to "WPA2" or "Both", you can enable pre-authentication for WPA2 clients.
Enable pre-authentication if you want
WPA2 wireless clients to send pre-authen-
tication packet. The pre-authentication
information will be relayed from the
access point the client is currently using to
the target access point. Enabling this fea-

Encryption Algorithm (AES).
To set the cipher suite to CCMP
(AES) only:
set bss wlan0bssInternal rsn-preauthentication on
set bss wlan0bssInternal rsn-preauthentication on
Example
set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip on
set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp off
set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip off
set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp on
