Cisco Systems CB21AG manual Setting Security Parameters, Preferred Access Points Window

Chapter 5 Configuring the Client Adapter

Setting Security Parameters

If this profile is configured for use in an infrastructure network and you want to specify up to four access points to which the client adapter should attempt to associate, click Preferred APs. The Preferred Access Points window appears (see Figure 5-3).

Figure 5-3 Preferred Access Points Window

Leave the Access Point 1 through Access Point 4 fields blank or enter the MAC addresses of up to four preferred access points to which the client adapter can associate; then click OK. (The MAC address should consist of 12 hexadecimal characters.) If the specified access points are not found or the client adapter roams out of range, the adapter may associate to another access point.

Go to the next section to set additional parameters or click OK to save your changes and return to the Cisco Aironet Desktop Utility (Profile Management) window.

Setting Security Parameters

The Profile Management (Security) window (see Figure 5-4) enables you to set parameters that control how the client adapter associates to an access point, authenticates to the wireless network, and encrypts and decrypts data. To access this window, click the Security tab from any Profile Management window.
