Configure a Wi-Fi access point with enterprise security

The WPA2 and WPA3 enterprise security modes allows a Wi-Fi access point to authenticate clients by
using one or more RADIUS servers. When the Wi-Fi access point receives a connection request from a
client, it authenticates the client with the RADIUS server before allowing the client to connect.
Using enterprise security modes allows each client to have different usernames and passwords
configured in the RADIUS server, rather than using preshared key on the TX40 device.
By default, the TX40 device comes with two preconfigured access points, Digi AP (Wi-Fi1) and Digi AP
(Wi-Fi2). You cannot delete default access points, but you can modify them or you can create your
own access points.
Note
The TX40 supports two Wi-Fi access points.
