Domain Name:

Each server has a domain name that uniquely identifies it. That domain name is normally contained in the Subject CN field of the server certificate. A server domain name ends with the name of a larger administrative domain, to which the server belongs.

TTLS Identity:

Tunneled Transport Layer Security satisfies a requirement for strong encryption and mutual authentication on Wireless networks. EAP-TTLS has a unique feature that other protocols do not offer. Because it sets up an encrypted tunnel for your credentials, it is also able to pass your login name through that tunnel. That means that not only are your credentials secure from eavesdropping, but your identity is protected as well. Thus, with EAP-TTLS you have two identities: an inner one, and an outer one. The inner identity is your actual user name. Your outer identity can be completely anonymous. Set your outer identity in the TTLS Identity field.

Trusted CA List:

The Trusted CA List allows you to configure which authentication servers you trust for the purpose of logging you in to the network.

Click Add at the Trusted CA List at the bottom of the Advanced Security Settings page. Select the Trusted CA that you want to add and click OK.
