Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Router Model SXR50 and Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Satellite Model SXS50
• WPA2 Enterprise: If your network is connected to a RADIUS server that can
provide authentication and your network includes WPA2 and WPA3 devices,
select this radio button. WPA2 Enterprise can provide a high level of security and
allows WPA2 and WPA3 devices to connect to the network. (WPA devices cannot
connect.) Before a WiFi client can connect to the network, the WiFi client must
be configured on the RADIUS server and authenticated against the RADIUS server.
The router functions as the authenticator between the WiFi client and the RADIUS
server, which provides the actual authentication.
When you select this option, additional fields display so that you can specify the
RADIUS server. Do the following:
a. In the IP address field, enter the IP address of the RADIUS server to which
the router must connect.
b. In the Port field, enter the port number that the router must use to
communicate with the RADIUS server.
By default, the port number is 1812.
c. In the Shared Secret field, enter the password that the router must use to
communicate with the RADIUS server.
This password must be configured on the RADIUS server. This password is
used to authenticate the router (not a WiFi client) against the RADIUS server.
• WPA3-Personal [SAE]: This is the most secure personal authentication option.
WPA3 uses SAE encryption and allows only WiFi devices that support WPA3 to
connect to the network. WiFi devices that support WPA or WPA2 cannot connect
to the network.
When you select this option, additional fields display so that you can add a key.
Do the following:
a. In the Password (Network Key) field, enter the network key (password) that
you want to use.
It is a text string from 8 to 127 characters.
b. Write down the new password and keep it in a secure place for future
reference.
• WPA3 Enterprise: If your network is connected to a RADIUS server that can
provide authentication and your network includes WPA3 devices only, select this
radio button. WPA3 Enterprise can provide the highest level of security but WPA
and WPA2 devices cannot connect. Before a WiFi client can connect to the
network, the WiFi client must be configured on the RADIUS server and
authenticated against the RADIUS server. The router functions as the authenticator
between the WiFi client and the RADIUS server, which provides the actual
authentication.
