Security Options: WPA/WPA2 Enterprise

This security option is not for home use but is typically used in a business or enterprise. WPA/WPA2 Enterprise does not use a passphrase but supports 802.1x authentication, which requires an internal or external RADIUS server. A Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server provides Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) management to grant (or deny) computers access to your wireless network.

WPA/WPA2 Enterprise can support WPA [TKIP] for WPA clients only, WPA2 [AES] for WPA2 clients only, and WPA [TKIP] + WPA2 [AES], which is a combination of TKIP and AES encryption, for both WPA and WPA2 clients. WPA clients are supported at speeds of up to 54 Mbps only. WPA2 clients are supported at speeds of up 300 Mbps.

WPA/WPA2 Enterprise supports five Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication methods: EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2, PEAPv0/EAP-MSCHAPv2, PEAPv1/EAP-GTC, and EAP-SIM.

To configure WPA/WPA2 Enterprise security:
