3. Basic Configuration
802.1x
802.1x allows users to leverage a RADIUS server to do association authentications. You
can also enable dynamic WEP key (128 bit) to have data encryption. Here you do not have
to enter the WEP key manually because it will be generated automatically and dynamically.
Rekey interval is time period that the system will change the key periodically. The shorter
the interval is, the better the security is.
Server IP and Shared Secret: If you have connect AP to a RADIUS server behind, key in
the Server IP and share secret, it will redirect incoming connection request first to this
RADIUS for Authentication. In general you don’t have to change Port Number, which is
1812 by default and used by most RADIUS server.
After you have finished the configuration wizard, you have to
configure the RADIUS Settings in Advanced Settings in order to make
the 802.1x function work.
Share secret is the key for AP to communicate with RADIUS server, check with your
Authentication provider for more details.
