4. Configure the Security field as required to set the data protection requirements for the
WLAN.
5. Configure the Advanced field as required to set MU interoperability permissions, secure
beacon transmissions, broadcast ESSID acceptance and Quality of Service (QoS) policies.
CAUTION A WLAN cannot be enabled for both mesh and hotspot support at the
same time. Only one of these two options can be enabled at one time,
as the AP-5131 GUI and CLI will prevent both from being enabled.
NOTE If 802.11a is selected as the radio used for the WLAN, the WLAN cannot
use a Kerberos supported security policy.
NOTE A WLAN configured to support Mesh should not have a Kerberos or
802.1x EAP security policy defined for it, as these two authentication
schemes are not supported within an AP-5131 Mesh network.
Security Policy Use the scroll down Security Policies menu to select the security
scheme best suited for the new or revised WLAN. Click the Create
button to jump to the New Security Policy screen where a new
policy can be created to suit the needs of the WLAN. For more
information, see Configuring WLAN Security Policies on page 5-29.
MU Access Control Select an ACL policy suiting the WLAN‘s MU introperability
requirements from the drop-down menu. If the existing ACL
policies do not satisfy the requirements of the WLAN, a new ACL
policy can be created by pressing the Create button. For more
information, see
Configuring a WLAN Access Control List (ACL) on page 5-31.
Kerberos User Name Displays the read-only Kerboros User Name used to associate the
wireless client. This value is the ESSID of the AP-5131.
Kerberos Password Enter a Kerberos password if Kerberos has been selected as the
security scheme from within the Security Policies field. The field
is grayed out if Kerberos has not been selected for the WLAN. For
information on configuring Kerberos, see
Configuring Kerberos Authentication on page 6-9.
