NETGEAR WNDAP350-100NAS manual Understanding Security Profiles

ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP350 Reference Manual

Program the wireless adapter of your PCs to have the same SSID that you configured in the WNDAP350. Check that they have a wireless link and are able to obtain an IP address by DHCP from the WNDAP350.

Note: If you are configuring the WNDAP350 from a wireless computer and you change the SSID, channel, or Security Profile settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the new settings.

Once your PCs have basic wireless connectivity to the WNDAP350, you can configure the advanced wireless security functions.

Understanding Security Profiles

Security Profiles let you configure unique security settings for each SSID. You can configure up to eight unique 802.11b/bg/ng wireless security profiles or up to eight unique 802.11a/na wireless security profiles on the WNDAP350 (see Figure 2-13).

Note: If you are using a RADIUS Server, configure the RADIUS settings first, as described in the “Configuring WPA with RADIUS” on page 2-35.
