6.2.4 WPA- Enterprise
This security mode is used when a RADIUS server is connected to the device. Select “WPA-Enterprise” from the drop-
down menu to enter the following window:
•
Select SSID: Select the SSID (main SSID or minor SSID) to configure security setting from the drop-down menu.
•
WPA Algorithms: Provides TKIP [Temporal Key Integrity Protocol] or AES [Advanced Encryption Standard]. The
default is TKIP mode.
•
Key Renewal Interval: Set the key’s renewal period.
•
Radius Server: Enter the IP address of the Radius server.
•
Radius Server port: Enter the authentication port of the Radius server. The default is 1812.
•
Shared Secret: Enter the shared key for authentication server with 8~63 ASCII characters.
•
Session Timeout: The authentication interval period between AP and authentication server.
6.2.5 WPA2-Enterprise
This security mode is based on Radius authentication server and WPA2 encryption method. WPA2 is used when a
RADIUS server is connected to the device. Select “WPA2-Enterprise” from the drop-down menu to enter the following
window:
•
Select SSID: Select the SSID (main SSID or minor SSID) to configure security setting from the drop-down menu.
•
WPA Algorithms: Provides TKIP [Temporal Key Integrity Protocol] or AES [Advanced Encryption Standard]. The
default is TKIP mode.
•
Key Renewal Interval: Set the key’s renewal period.
•
Radius Server: Enter the IP address of the Radius server.
•
Radius Server port: Enter the authentication port of the Radius server. The default is 1812.
•
Shared Secret: Enter the shared key for authentication server with 8~63 ASCII characters.
•
Session Timeout: The authentication interval period between AP and authentication server. The default is 3600s.
6.2.6 802.1X
This security mode is used when a RADIUS server is connected to the device. 802.1x, a kind of port-based authentication
protocol, is an authentication type and strategy for users. The port can be either a physical port or logical port (such as
VLAN). For wireless LAN users, a port is just a channel. The nal purpose of 802.11x authentication is to check if the port
can be used. If the port is successfully authenticated, you can open this port which allows all the messages to pass. If the
port is not successfully authenticated, you can keep this port “disabled”, which just allows 802.1x authentication protocol
messages to pass. Select “802.1x” from the drop-down menu to enter the following window:
•
Select SSID: Select the SSID (main SSID or minor SSID) to configure security setting from the drop-down menu.
•
WEP: Click “Enable/Disable” to enable or disable the WEP algorithm.
•
Radius Server: Enter the IP address of the Radius server.
•
Radius Server Port: Enter the authentication port of the Radius server. The default is 1812.
•
Shared Secret: Enter the shared key for authentication server with 8~63 ASCII characters.
•
Session Timeout: The authentication interval period between AP and authentication server. The default is 3600s.
6.3 WPS Settings
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setting) can be used to establish the connection between the wireless network clients and the
device through encrypted contents easily and quickly. The users only enter PIN code or press WPS button on the panel
to congure it without selecting encryption method and secret keys manually. In the “Wireless settings” menu, click “WPS
settings” to enter the next screen.
•
WPS settings: To enable or disable WPS function. The default is “disable”.
•
WPS mode: Provide two ways: PBC (Push-Button Configuration) and PIN code.
•
PBC: Select PBC or press the WPS button on the front panel of the device for about one second. (Press the button
for about one second and WPS indicator will be flashing for 2 minutes, which means the WPS is enabled. During
flashing, you can enable another device to implement the WPS/PBC negotiation between them. Two minutes later, the
WPS indicator will turn off, which means that the WPS connection is completed. If more clients are added, repeat the
above steps. At present, the WPS supports up to 32 clients access.)
•
PIN: If this option is enabled, you need to enter a wireless client’s PIN code in the field and keep the same code in the
WPS client.
