Configuring WPA To configure MAP radios to support WPA:

1Create a service profile for each SSID that will support WPA clients.

2Enable the WPA IE in the service profile.

3Enable the cipher suites you want to support in the service profile. (TKIP is enabled by default.) Optionally, you also can change the countermeasures timer value for TKIP.

4Map the service profile to the radio profile that will control IEEE settings for the radios.

5Assign the radio profile to the radios and enable the radios.

If you plan to use PSK authentication, you also need to enable this authentication method and enter an ASCII passphrase or a hexadecimal (raw) key.
