Configuring Wpa; Creating A Service Profile For Wpa; Enabling Wpa; Specifying The Wpa Cipher Suites - D-Link DWS-1008 - AirPremier MobileLAN Switch Product Manual

To configure access point radios to support WPA:
1. Create a service profile for each SSID that will support WPA clients.
2. Enable the WPA IE in the service profile.
3. Enable the cipher suites you want to support in the service profile. (TKIP is enabled by
default.) Optionally, you also can change the countermeasures timer value for TKIP.
4. Map the service profile to the radio profile that will control IEEE settings for the radios.
5. Assign the radio profile to the radios and enable the radios.
If you plan to use PSK authentication, you also need to enable this authentication method and enter an
ASCII passphrase or a hexadecimal (raw) key.
Encryption parameters apply to all users who use the SSID configured by a service profile. To create a
service profile, use the following command:
set service-profile name
To create a new service profile named wpa, type the following command:
DWS-1008# set service-profile wpa
success: change accepted.
To enable WPA, you must enable the WPA information element (IE) in the service profile. To enable the
WPA IE, use the following command:
set service-profile name wpa-ie {enable | disable}
To enable WPA in service profile wpa, type the following command:
DWS-1008# set service-profile wpa wpa-ie enable
success: change accepted.
To use WPA, at least one cipher suite must be enabled. You can enable one or more of the following
cipher suites:
• CCMP • TKIP
• 40-bit WEP • 104-bit WEP
By default, TKIP is enabled and the other cipher suites are disabled.
