Operations Guide – DOC. 7078G
In some situations, such as when the wireless access point is connected to a RADIUS
(Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) server, authentication is required
before network access is granted.
In order to gain access in this infrastructure, a username and password must be
entered for verification by the server. To facilitate this, the TPMC-8X-GA Security
Pack adds the Atheros Client configuration utility.
The Security Pack is available as a special firmware build
(TPMC-8X-GA_SP_1.4.zip or later) for the TPMC-8X-GA. For details on how to
upgrade firmware, refer to "Programs, Projects and Firmware" which starts on page
40.
NOTE: The TPMC-8X-GA Security Pack is only needed if authentication is
required by the server with which the wireless access point communicates. If
authentication is not required, Crestron recommends not installing this package.
Once installed it cannot be removed without sending the TPMC-8X-GA back to
Crestron.
To begin the authentication process for the wireless access point, touch AP in the
"Ethernet Setup" window. (Refer to illustration on page 28.) The "Atheros Client
Utility" window opens.
