and password of the end device that is trying to communicate with the
network.
Check the Enable Alternative Method ACL check box if you want the
access point to issue RADIUS requests with the user name and
password both set to the MAC address of the end device that is trying to
communicate with the network.

field, enter the password that is used to sign RADIUS access requests for
all end devices attached to this access point. This password must match
