Security

Note: Before you configure security, you might want to read Wireless Data

Security Options on page 584.

 

 

Specify the wireless security by making a selection from the drop-down list:

 

OPEN. This is the default setting. An open system has no authentication

 

and no encryption, and therefore no security configuration. However, you

 

can use an open system with encryption. To do so, select WEP from the

 

Security drop-down list. In the WEP Index and Keys section of the

 

screen, take the following steps:

 

- Select Open System authentication.

 

-

Select the encryption.

 

- Enter a passphrase and generate a key, or enter a key manually.

 

WEP. To configure WEP, take the following steps in the WEP Index and

 

Keys section of the screen:

 

- Select Shared Key authentication.

 

-

Select the encryption.

 

- Enter a passphrase and generate a key, or enter a key manually.

 

WPA. To configure WPA, select the encryption and authentication. The

 

remaining configuration depends on the selected authentication:

 

- For WPA-PSK, select a password.

 

- For WPA with RADIUS, configure the RADIUS server settings.

 

- For WPA with PSK+RADIUS, select a password and configure the

 

 

RADIUS server settings.

 

WPA2. To configure WPA2, select the encryption and authentication. The

 

remaining configuration depends on the selected authentication:

 

- For WPA2-PSK, select a password.

 

- For WPA2 with RADIUS, configure the RADIUS server settings. As an

 

 

option, you can enable RADIUS preauthentication.

 

- For WPA2 with PSK+RADIUS, select a password and configure the

 

 

RADIUS server settings. As an option, you can enable RADIUS

 

 

preauthentication.

 

WPA+WPA2. To configure WPA, select the encryption and

 

authentication. The remaining configuration depends on the selected

 

authentication:

 

- For WPA+WPA2 with PSK, select a password.

 

- For WPA+WPA2 with RADIUS, configure the RADIUS server settings.

 

- For WPA+WPA2 with PSK+RADIUS, select a password and configure

 

 

the RADIUS server settings.
