Wireless Security
This screen is accessed by clicking the "Configure" button on the Wireless screen. There are 3
options for Wireless security:
•
Disabled - no data encryption is used.
•
WEP - data is encrypted using the WEP standard.
•
WPA-802.1x - This version of WPA requires a Radius Server on your LAN to provide the
client authentication according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are encrypted
using the WPA standard.
If this option is selected:
•
This Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server.
•
Each user must have a "user login" on the Radius Server.
•
Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the login data when re-
quired.
•
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA standard. Keys are automatically
generated, so no key input is required.
•
WPA2-802.1x - This version of WPA2 requires a Radius Server on your LAN to provide
the client authentication according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are en-
crypted using the WPA2 standard.
If this option is selected:
•
This Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server.
•
Each user must authenticate on the Radius Server. This is usually done using digital
certificates.
•
Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the Radius authentication
data when required.
•
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA2 standard. Keys are automatically
generated, so no key input is required.
