VLAN PARAMETERS
VLAN ID
Assigns a VLAN ID to the wireless network. The LPS-20x bridges all wireless traffic to the matching VLAN
connected to the Internet port.
WIRELESS PROTECTION PARAMETERS
Select the type of protection you want to use for the wireless network.
WPA
This option enables support for users with Wi-Fi Protected Areas (WPA) client software.
Key Source
This option determines how the Temporary Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys are generated.
• RADIUS: The LPS-20x obtains the Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) protocol key from the
RADIUS server. This is a dynamic key that changes each time the user logs in and is authenticated. The
MPPE key is used to generate the TKIP keys that encrypt the wireless data stream. Select the appropriate
RADIUS server.
• Preshared Key: The LPS-20x uses the key you specify in the Key field to generate the TKIP keys that
encrypt the wireless data stream. Since this is a static key, it is not as secure as the RADIUS option.
Specify a key that is between 8 and 64 characters in length. It is recommended that the preshared key be
at least 20 characters long, and be a mix of letters and numbers.
Key/Confirm key
Specify a key that is between 8 and 64 characters in length.

IMPORTANT
Enabling this feature bypasses all security features that are active on the LPS-20x. Make sure that
your VLAN has the appropriate security installed to protect access to the network.
