DESCRIPTION

#

This field displays the trusted AP index number.

 

 

Active

Select this check box to have the NWA use the IP Address and Shared

 

Secret to authenticate a trusted AP.

 

 

IP Address

Type the IP address of the trusted AP in dotted decimal notation.

 

 

Shared Secret

Enter a password (up to 31 alphanumeric characters, no spaces) as the

 

key for encrypting communications between the AP and the NWA. The

 

key is not sent over the network. This key must be the same on the AP

 

and the NWA.

 

Both the NWA’s IP address and this shared secret must also be configured

 

in the “external RADIUS” server fields of the trusted AP.

 

Note: The first trusted AP fields are for the NWA itself.
