Choosing Between Microsoft and Funk Security

60
If you are using WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, or 802.1x security, this
section also assumes that your authentication server and
authenticators are properly configured.
Note: Your security choice does not depend on your authentication
server. For example, you can choose Funk security if you use
Microsoft Active Directory® to issue certificates.
The CN3 supports both Funk and Microsoft security, which
dynamically select wireless networks based on your preferences. The
option you choose depends on your network security needs.
• If you are using the CN3 in a static environment that requires a
high level of security, you should use Funk security, which offers:
• CCX v4.0 compliance.
• support for LEAP and TTLS.
• configuration of up to four profiles.
To use Funk security, you need to select a profile. For help, see the
next section,

"Selecting a Funk Security Profile."

• If you are primarily using the CN3 to connect to WiFi hotspots,
you may want to use Microsoft security.
To use Microsoft security, you need to select it as your security
choice. For help, see
Choice" on page 65.
Selecting a Funk Security Profile
You can define up to four profiles for Funk security. Different profiles
let your CN3 communicate in different networks without having to
change all of your security settings. For example, you may want to set
up one profile for the manufacturing floor and one for the
warehouse. By default, the active profile is Profile 1.
Note: You can also use the Profile Wizard to configure most wireless
security settings. To start the Profile Wizard, tap the iConnect icon
( ) in the lower right corner of the Today screen and select Tools >
Wireless Settings.
