Table 24 lists the encryption support for WPA and non-WPA clients.

Configuring WPA

To configure MAP radios to support WPA:

1 Create a service profile for each SSID that will support WPA clients.

2 Enable the WPA IE in the service profile.

3 Enable the cipher suites you want to support in the service profile. (TKIP is

enabled by default.) Optionally, you also can change the countermeasures
timer value for TKIP.

4 Map the service profile to the radio profile that will control IEEE settings

for the radios.

5 Assign the radio profile to the radios and enable the radios.

If you plan to use PSK authentication, you also need to enable this
authentication method and enter an ASCII passphrase or a hexadecimal
(raw) key.
