WPA/WPA2

Enterprise

(RADIUS)

Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (

WPA2

) with Remote Authentication Dial-In User

Service (

RADIUS

) is an implementation of the Wi-Fi Alliance IEEE

802.11i

standard, which includes Advanced Encryption Standard (

AES

), Counter

mode/CBC-MAC Protocol (

CCMP

), and Temporal Key Integrity Protocol

(

TKIP

) mechanisms. The Enterprise mode requires the use of a RADIUS

server to authenticate users, and the configuration of user accounts using
the Cluster > User Management page.

This security mode is backwards-compatible with wireless clients that
support the original

WPA

.

When you configure WPA2 Enterprise (RADIUS) mode, you have a choice
of whether to use the built-in RADIUS server or an external RADIUS
server that you provide. The AT-WA7400 Management Software built-in
RADIUS server supports Protected

EAP

(PEAP) and MSCHAP V2.

security mode
