Configuring the Advanced Settings

WPA and WPA2 with authentication server

In large networks (for example in companies), WPA enables the use of an additional authentication service. In this case, user access is controlled by user accounts and pass- words, in addition to WPA encryption. A RADIUS server acts as an authentication server. You can select the new WPA2 standard if this is supported by all components in your wireless network, or select WPA2 / WPA if you are using devices that only support WPA.

ìSelect the required option in the Security field.

ìEnter the IP address of the RADIUS server in the RADIUS server IP address field.

ìEnter the port of the RADIUS server in the RADIUS server port field.

ìIn the RADIUS server secret key field, enter a keyword conforming to the conven- tions of the RADIUS server, which is to be used by the server for authentication.

ìClick OK to apply the settings.
