WLAN Parameter
Specification
WLAN Name
Label or name of WLAN.
Security Level
Security mode of WLAN, from high to low is Enterprise>Personal>Open. Here
select the Enterprise mode.
Key Management
WPA3/WPA2/WPA encryption method. It is applicable to Enterprise/Personal
WLANs only.
• Both(wpa&wpa2): Allowing WPA or WPA2 capable wireless client to
connect to the WLAN
• wpa2-enterprise: Allowing WPA2 capable or WPA3 capable wireless client
to connect to the WLAN
• wpa3-enterprise: Allowing WPA3 capable wireless client to connect to the
WLAN. CSNA: Allowing client supporting WPA3 with CNSA (Suite B) to
connect when checked.
Note: AP1101 full band does not support WPA3 CNSA encryption, AP1201H and AP1201L
2.4Ghz band does not support WPA3 CSNA encryption. All other APs and radio bands
support CSNA encryption. When CSNA encryption is applied to an AP that does not support
it, the encryption will automatically fall back to non-CSNA mode (WPA2).
PMF
Stellar supports the IEEE802.11w standard, also known as Protected Management
Frames (PMF). The PMF function increases the security by providing data
confidentiality of management frames. PMF is applicable for WPA2 and WPA3
encryption method.
• Disabled: Disables 802.11w PMF protection for the WLAN.
• Optional: Both 802.11w PMF capable clients and 802.11w PMF non-
capable clients can connect the WLAN.
• Required: Only 802.11w PMF capable clients can associate to the WLAN.
• For WPA3 Enterprise authentication, if the CNSA is selected, PMF is set to
‘required’ which means only PMF capable client can connect.
AuthServer
IPv4/IPv6 address of the authentication server (RADIUS).
AuthPort
Communication port of the authentication server. The default value is 1812.
AuthSecret
Shared secret key used by the authentication server, in ASCII format.
RADIUS Accounting
Select the checkbox if accounting service is needed. By default, it is not selected.
AcctServer
IPv4 address of the accounting server.
AcctPort
Communication port of the accounting server. The default value is 1813.
AcctSecret
Shared secret key used by the accounting server, in ASCII format.
Inactivity Timeout
Status
Enable/Disable inactivity timeout control. If enabled, those clients not
transmitting any packets in the configured period will be disconnected from the
wireless network.
Inactivity Timeout
Interval
Specify the inactivity timeout internal, default is 600 seconds.
Enable
Specify the WLAN state, Yes indicates that WLAN is in broadcast state, while No
indicates WLAN is not in broadcast state.
Hidden
Specify visibility of the WLAN, Yes indicates that WLAN is visible to users, while
No indicates WLAN is invisible.
Multicast
This feature allows APs to convert multicast streams into unicast streams over the
wireless network based on the IGMP snooping table. Enabling Multicast to Unicast
(for up to 6 clients) can enhance the quality and reliability of video streams,
while preserving the bandwidth available to the non-video services.
Broadcast ARP
If enabled, AP will reply to client’s ARP request instead of forwarding.
VLAN ID
Identifier of the VLAN to which the WLAN mapping, it is a user VLAN.
Band
Select a value to specify the band at which the network transmits radio signals.
You can set the band to 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or All. The All option is selected by
default.
