LABEL

DESCRIPTION

 

 

Dynamic WEP

This field is activated only when you select Authentication Required in the

Key Exchange

Wireless Port Control field. Also set the Key Management Protocol field to

 

802.1x.

 

Select Disable to allow wireless stations to communicate with the access points

 

without using dynamic WEP key exchange.

 

Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

 

Up to 32 stations can access the G-1000 when you configure dynamic WEP key

 

exchange.

 

This field is not available when you set Key Management Protocol to WPA or

 

WPA-PSK.

Authentication

The authentication database contains wireless station login information. The local

Databases

user database is the built-in database on the G-1000G-1000. The RADIUS is an

 

external server. Use this drop-down list box to select which database the G-1000

 

should use (first) to authenticate a wireless station.

 

Before you specify the priority, make sure you have set up the corresponding

 

database correctly first.

 

Select Local User Database Only to have the G-1000 just check the built-in user

 

database on the G-1000 for a wireless station's username and password.

 

Select RADIUS Only to have the G-1000 just check the user database on the

 

specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and password.

 

Select Local first, then RADIUS to have the G-1000 first check the user database

 

on the G-1000 for a wireless station's username and password. If the user name is

 

not found, the G-1000 then checks the user database on the specified RADIUS

 

server.

 

Select RADIUS first, then Local to have the G-1000 first check the user database

 

on the specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and password. If

 

the G-1000 cannot reach the RADIUS server, the G-1000 then checks the local

 

user database on the G-1000. When the user name is not found or password does

 

not match in the RADIUS server, the G-1000 will not check the local user database

 

and the authentication fails.

Note: Once you enable user authentication, you need to specify an external RADIUS server or create local user accounts on the G-1000 for authentication.
