WS 2000 Use Cases
Clarissa then clicks the "+" to the left of the POS WLAN in the left menu and selects
POS
Security.
In that screen, she selects
802.1x EAP
for authentication. This will allow her to use the corporate RADIUS
server for user authentication. Under Encryption Methods, she selects
WPA/WPA2-TKIP
encryption.
Then she selects the
"802.1x EAP
Configuration" key. In the next screen, she enters the corporate RADIUS
server's IP address, its port number, and the secret string needed to access it. In this case, her corporation is
using a port number other than the standard one of 1812. She wants to allow the software to reauthenticate
the users, but she is uncomfortable with the 3600 second (one hour) interval, and changes it to 10 minutes
(600 seconds). She sees no reason to change the other 802.1x parameters.
