protocol for the authentication method, this check
box determines if this access point uses a login to
authenticate to the network. This login must be in
the authentication server database.

Preferred Protocol

which protocol is sent to the authentication server
when it sends an unsupported protocol.

uses TTLS to authenticate to the network.

Password

Enter the password of the access point when it
uses TTLS to authenticate to the network.

Verify CA
Certificate

server. The server certificate signature is verified
against the CA certificate and the server common
name is verified against the authentication server
common names that are configured in the access
