authenticate itself. Automatic certificate downloading is convenient but slightly less secure, since its the certificate is transferred wirelessly and could theoretically be “sniffed-out”.

EAP-FAST 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 permit-

 

ted 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. Typ-

 

ically, this is in the form of a username such as: jdoe@amx.com.

 

 

Anonymous Identity:

Opens an on-screen keyboard. Enter an IT provided alpha-numeric string

 

which (similar to the username) used as the identity, but that does not repre-

 

sent a real user.

 

This information is used as a fictitious name which might be seen by sniffer

 

programs during the initial connection and setup process between the panel

 

and the Radius server. In this way the real identity (username) is protected.

 

Typically, this is in the form of a fictitious username such as: anony-

 

mous@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.

 

 

Automatic PAC

This selection toggles PAC (Protected Access Credential) Provisioning -

Provisioning:

Enabled (automatic) or Disabled (manual).

 

• If Enabled is selected, the following PAC File Location field is disabled,

 

because the search for the PAC file is done automatically.

 

• If Disabled is selected, the user is required to manually locate a file

 

containing the PAC shared secret credentials for use in authentication. In

 

this case, the IT department must create a PAC file and then transfer it into

 

the panel using the AMX Certificate Upload application.

 

Note: Even when automatic provisioning is enabled, the PAC certificate is

 

only downloaded the first time that the panel connects to the RADIUS server.

 

This file is then saved into the panel's file system and is then reused from

 

then on. It is possible for the user to change a setting (such as a new Identity)

 

that would invalidate this certificate.

 

In that case, the panel must be forced to download a new PAC file.

 

To do this, set Automatic PAC Provisioning to Disabled and then back to

 

Enabled. This forces the firmware to delete the old file and request a new

 

one.
