WLAN Security Settings

The IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL provides four standardized wireless security modes: Open, WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy), WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), and WPA2. Several security modes are available in the
IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL by selecting Security mode and WPA type:
• Open: No authentication, no data encryption.
• WEP: Static WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) keys must be configured manually.
• WPA/WPA2-Personal: Also known as WPA/WPA2-PSK. You will need to specify the Pre-Shared Key in the
Passphrase field, which will be used by the TKIP or AES engine as a master key to generate keys that
actually encrypt outgoing packets and decrypt incoming packets.
• WPA/WPA2-Enterprise: Also called WPA/WPA2-EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol). In addition to
device-based authentication, WPA/WPA2-Enterprise enables user-based authentication via IEEE 802.1X.
The IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL can support three EAP methods: EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, and EAP-PEAP.
Description
at a slower speed if 802.11a clients are on the network
Only supports the 5 GHz IEEE 802.11n standard
Description
This option is only adjustable when the IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL
plays the role of wireless AP. If the device acts as a wireless
client, it follows the channel of the associated access point
Description
Select your channel width, If you are not sure which option to
use, select 20/ 40 MHz (Auto)
Description
The SSID of a client and the SSID of the AP must be identical for
the client and AP to be able to communicate with each other.
Description
SSID can be broadcast or not
Description
Enable the AeroLink APs to monitor Ethernet communication on
the AP side in order to trigger AeroLink Protection on the client
side under milliseconds recovery time.
NOTE: AeroLink Protection should be also enabled on the client
side at the same time.
Description
For security purpose, the management frame encryption allows
the units to set the same password to connect to each other.
The management frame encrypted with this password is able to
change by users
