Disabled ‐ The radio is disabled. To enable the radio, tap Enable Radio located on the SCU Main window. When the radio is disabled, it does not attempt to make a connection to an access point. Not Associated ‐ The radio has not established a connection to an access point. Associated ‐ The radio has established a connection to an access point. If the radio Encryption type is set to WEP or a pre‐shared key (WPA‐PSK or WPA2‐PSK), it should now be capable of obtaining an IP address (either statically assigned or through DHCP) and passing traffic. If the radio Encryption type requires EAP authentication then an EAP Type must be properly configured in order for the device to obtain an IP address and be capable of passing traffic. <EAP type> Authenticated ‐ The radio has established a connection to an access point and has completed EAP authentication successfully. ...

Figure 5.3: Scan Window Each row shows an AP's SSID, its received signal strength indication (RSSI), and whether or not data encryption is in use (true or false). You can sort the list by tapping on the column headers. If the scan finds more than one AP with the same SSID, the list displays the AP with the strongest RSSI and the least security. Every five seconds, the Scan window updates the RSSI value for each of the APs in the list. To scan for new APs and view an updated list, tap Refresh. If you are authorized as an administrator in SCU, you can create a profile for any SSID in the list. To create a profile, double‐tap the row for the SSID; or tap the row and then tap Configure Figure 5.4: Scan Window If you tap Yes on the dialog box, then SCU creates a profile for that SSID, with the profile name being the same as the SSID (or the SSID with a suffix such as "_1" if a profile with the SSID as its name exists already). If the AP is using WEP, then SCU opens a dialog box in which you can specify WEP keys. If the AP is using EAP, then SCU opens a dialog box in which you can specify login credentials for the EAP type (which SCU assumes is LEAP). After you enter information on a dialog box, you return to the SCU Profile window, where you can view and edit profile settings. If you make any changes, then you must tap Commit to save the changes.
