Configuring 802.1x TTLS Security

To use 802.1x TTLS security, you need:
• a PC with the Funk Odyssey™ server software version 1.1 or later. This
PC must also be configured with the current date and time, because the
server uses these values when it authenticates the terminal.
Note: You can also use a MobileLAN access point with software release
1.80 or later as an authentication server. For help, see the MobileLAN
access System Manual.
• an Intermec MobileLAN access point with an 802.11b radio and
software release 1.80 or later that serves as an authenticator. The
authenticator knows the IP address and secret key of the authentication
server and translates EAP-TTLS frames to RADIUS frames and vice
versa.
• a Trakker Antares terminal. Your terminal must have an 802.11b radio,
the 802.1x TTLS security option (includes additional 4MB memory),
and firmware version 7.14 or later.
Note: The CACERT.PEM file on the terminal's C drive is used for
802.1x TTLS security. Do not delete this file from your terminal. If this
file is deleted, you will need to download the latest version of firmware to
your terminal. For help, see "Upgrading the Firmware" in Chapter 2 of the
2400 Family system manual.
To enable 802.1x TTLS security on the terminal
1 Make sure that:
• your Funk Odyssey authentication server and MobileLAN access
point are properly configured. For help, see the documentation for
your authentication server and MobileLAN access point.
• the PC that the authentication server is loaded on is configured with
the current date and time.
• your terminal is configured with the primary network, advanced
network, and radio parameters.
