WPS Setup

Cisco Small Business WAP121 and WAP321 Wireless-N Access Point with PoE 105

Any one VAP on the WAP device can be enabled for WPS. At most, one WPS

transaction (for example, enrollment and association of an 802.11 client) can be in

progress at a time on the WAP device. The WAP device administrator can

terminate the transaction in progress from the web-based configuration utility. The

configuration of the VAP, however, should not be changed during the transaction;

nor should the VAP be changed during the authentication process. This restriction

is recommended but not enforced on the WAP device.

Although WAP devices support WPS version 2.0, the WAP device interoperates

with enrollees and registrars that are certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance to conform to

version 1.0 of the WPS protocol.

Configuring WPS Settings

You can use the WPS Setup page to enable the WAP device as a WPS-capable

device and configure basic settings. When you are ready to use the feature to

enroll a new device or add the WAP device to a WPS-enabled network, use the

WPS Process page.

CAUTION For security reasons, it is recommended, but not required, that you use an HTTPS

connection to the web-based configuration utility when configuring WPS.

To configure the WAP device as a WPS-capable device:

STEP 1 Select Wireless > WPS Setup in the navigation pane.

The WPS Setup page shows global parameters and status, and parameters and

status of the WPS instance. An instance is an implementation of WPS that is

associated with a VAP on the network. The WAP device supports one instance

only.

STEP 2 Configure the global parameters:

•Supported WPS Version—The WPS protocol version that the WAP device

supports.
