Chapter 10: Configuring Security
WPA Enterprise
112 Psion Teklogix 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway User Manual
10.2.7 WPA Enterprise Wi-Fi Protected Access Enterprise with Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service (RADIUS) is an implementation of the Wi-Fi Alliance IEEE 802.11h
standard, which includes Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Counter
mode/CBC-MAC Protocol (CCMP), and Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)
mechanisms. The Enterprise mode requires the use of a RADIUS server to
authenticate users, and configuration of user accounts via the Cluster,
User Management tab.
This security mode is backwards-compatible with wireless clients that support the
original WPA.
When configuring WPA Enterprise mode, you have a choice of whether to use the
built-in RADIUS server or an external RADIUS server that you provide. The 9160
G2 Wireless Gateway built-in RADIUS server supports Protected EAP (PEAP) and
MSCHAP V2.
If you selected “WPA Enterprise” Security Mode, complete the se ttings as described
in Table10.12 on page 113.
