security configuration is set to WPA.
Wireless > Security > 802.1x
802.1x is a security protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). It is a port-
based network access control that keeps the network port disconnected until au-
thentication is completed. 802.1x is based on the Extensible Authentication protocol
(EAP). EAP messages from the authenticator to the authentication server typically
use the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) protocol. The screen-
shot below illustrates the default setting of the 802.1x Wireless Security screen.
Following is a description of the 802.1x Security field settings.

RADIUS server. You can enter up to 63
characters in this field.
Group Key I°terval
The group key interval that is used to
distribute the group key to 802.1x and
WPA stations.
Wireless>Security>WPA
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a security protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks
(WLAN). WPA uses a sophisticated key hierarchy that generates new encryption
keys each time a mobile device establishes itself with an access point. Protocols in-
cluding 802.1X, EAP and RADIUS are used for strong authentication. Like WEP, keys
can still be entered manually (preshared keys); however, using a RADIUS authenti-
cation server provides automatic key generation and enterprise-wide authentication.
The screen below illustrates the default setting of the WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
Wireless Security screen.
Following is a description of the WPA Security field settings.
Option
Description
802.1x
When selected, the WPA stations authenticate with the RADIUS
server using EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Trans-
port Layer Security) over 802.1x.

The secret that the AP shares with the RADIUS server
PSK
String Pre-Shared Key String. When selected, the WPA stations
do not authenticate with the RADIUS server using EAP-TLS. In-
stead they share a pre-shared secret with the AP (ASCII format).
The PSK string needs to be entered in the first time configuration
with each station.
Wireless>Management
The Wireless Management function gives another level of security to your AP. It
allows you to create an allowed access list or a banned access list (not both), and
view a list of stations associated with your access point.
Wireless>Management>Access List
By clicking on Management from the left-hand navigation list, you are taken to the
default Access List screen.
You can create an allowed OR banned access list from the Access List screen by
performing the following procedures.
1. Check Enable Access List.
2. Select Allow to create an allowed access list or Ban to create a banned list.
Note:
You can not create both.
3. Enter a MAC (Medium Access Control) address of an allowed or banned station,
then click the Add button. This station will appear in your allowed or banned ac-
cess list.
4. Repeat this step for each station.
5. To save your settings, refer to the ‘‘Save Your Changes’’ section above.
Wireless > Management > Associated Stations
By clicking on the Associated Stations button under the ‘Management’ option, you
are taken to the Associated Stations screen. This screen allows you to see a list of
all associated stations with the access point. You can ban any station(s) on the list
by clicking on the Ban Station button next to the MAC Address. To save your set-
tings, refer to ‘‘Save Your Changes’’ section above.

You can access the Multiple SSID screen by clicking on the Multiple SSID button un-
der the Management option. The Enable SSID field will enable you to create multiple
SSIDs for the AP.
Note:
Currently VLAN (Virtual LAN) + Multiple SSID with different security op
-
tions is not supported. If security is enabled, you will not be able to enable
multiple SSID. You can only enable multiple SSID if your security option is
set to “None”.
You can create multiple SSIDs by performing the following procedures.
Create an Access List
1. Check Enable Multiple SSID.
2.
Enter the name of the first SSID in the SSID field, then click the Add button.
Repeat this step for each additional SSID.
The SSIDs will appear as shown in
below.
3. To delete an SSID, check the SSID, then click Delete in the popup window. To
delete all SSIDs, check Delete All.
4. To save your settings, refer to the ‘‘Save Your Changes’’ section above.
