3. Set the Cipher Suites

Set the cipher suite you want to use. The options are:

Cipher Suite Option	Example
TKIP: Temporal Key Integrity	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip on
Protocol (TKIP), which is the
default.	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp off
To set the cipher suite to TKIP
only:
CCMP (AES) - Counter mode/	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip off
CBC-MAC Protocol (CCMP) is
an encryption method for IEEE	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp on
802.11i that uses the Advanced
Encryption Algorithm (AES).
To set the cipher suite to CCMP
(AES) only:
Both - When the authentication	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip on
algorithm is set to "Both", both
TKIP and AES clients can asso-	set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp on
ciate with the access point.
WPA clients must have either a
valid TKIP key or a valid CCMP
(AES) key to be able to associ-
ate with the AP.
To set the cipher suite to Both:

In this example, you will set the cipher suite to Both:

USR5453-AP#set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-tkip on

USR5453-AP#set bss wlan0bssInternal wpa-cipher-ccmp on

4. Set the Pre-shared Key

The Pre-shared Key is the shared secret key for WPA-PSK. Enter a string of at least 8 characters to a maximum of 63 characters. Following are two examples; the first sets the key to "SeCret !", the second sets the key to "KeepSecret".

Ex 1. USR5453-AP#set interface wlan0 wpa-personal-key "SeCret !"

or

Ex 2. USR5453-AP#set interface wlan0 wpa-personal-key KeepSecret
