ADC Telecommunications, Inc. 113
WIRELESS PROTECTION PARAMETER
This option enables support for users with 802.1x client software. The LPS-20x supports 802.1x client software that
uses EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, and PEAP.
Note that all authentication tasks are handled by the LPS-20x and not the wireless client station. This means that the
RADIUS server must be reachable via the downstream port.
RADIUS profile
Communications with the RADIUS server is handled via the access controller. This setting cannot be changed.
WEP encryption
Enable the use of dynamic WEP keys for all 802.1x sessions. Dynamic key rotation occurs on key 1, which is the
broadcast key. Key 0 is the pairwise key. It is automatically generated by the LPS-20x.
Key length and key change interval are set in the Dynamic keys box.
!
IMPORTANT
802.1x sessions are terminated by the LPS-20x. This means that the LPS-20x handles all
authentication tasks and must communicate with the RADIUS server to validate login credentials.
The LPS-20x sends this authentication traffic on the internet port. Therefore, the RADIUS server
or access controller must be reachable via this port.
