EAP-PEAP Settings

PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) was developed as a way to securely transmit authentication information, such as passwords, over a wireless network environment. PEAP uses only server-side public key certificates and therefore does not need a client (panel) certificate which makes the configuration and setup easier.

There are two main versions of the PEAP protocol supported by panel’s DeviceScape Wireless Client: PEAPv0

PEAPv1

PEAP uses inner authentication mechanisms supported by the DeviceScape Wireless Client, the most common of which are:

MSCHAPv2 with PEAPv0 GTC with PEAPv1

EAP-PEAP security is designed for wireless environments where it is necessary to transmit data securely over a wireless network.

EAP-PEAP Settings

SSID (Service Set Identifier):	Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
	WAP. The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all
	panels on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is
	permitted to join the network.
	• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
	• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
	• NXA-WAP200Gs use AMX as their default SSID.
	• With EAP security, the SSID of the WAP must be entered. If it is left blank,
	the panel will try to connect to the first access point detected that supports
	EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
	detected WAP may be connected to a RADIUS server, which may not
	support this EAP type and/or have the proper user identities configured.
Identity:	Opens an on-screen keyboard. Enter an EAP Identity string (used by the
	panel to identify itself to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server).
	Note: This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured
	server or workstation. This works in tandem with the Password string which is
	similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
	Typically, this is in the form of a username such as: jdoe@amx.com.
Password:	Opens an on-screen keyboard. Enter the network password string specified
	for the user entered within the Identity field (used by the panel to identify itself
	to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server)
	Note: This information is similar to the password entered to gain access to a
	secured workstation.
Certificate Authority:	When pressed, the panel displays an on-screen Certificate Authority (CA)
	File Location keyboard which allows you to enter the name of the certificate
	authority file which is used to validate the server certificate. This field is
	optional.
	If a server certificate is used, it should first be downloaded into the panel and
	the Certificate Authority field should then be set to the name of that certificate
	file. No file path should be used for this setting as all certificates are stored in
	a specific directory that the user cannot control or change.
	• Use the on-screen keyboard’s Clear button to completely erase any
	previously stored network path information.
PEAP Version:	When pressed, this field cycles through the choices of available PEAP:
	PEAPv0, PEAPv1, or PEAPv1 w/peaplabel=1.
