EAP-PEAP
From the Security Modes options, press the Enterprise button to open the Wireless Security: Enterprise Mode
page. Scroll through the Security Type options to select EAP-PEAP (FIG. 73).
PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) was developed as a way to securely transmit
authentication information, such as passwords, over a wireless network environment. PEAP uses only server-
side public key certificates and therefore does not need a client (panel) certificate which makes the
configuration and setup easier.
There are two main versions of the PEAP protocol supported by panel’s DeviceScape Wireless Client:
PEAPv0
PEAPv1
PEAP uses inner authentication mechanisms supported by the DeviceScape Wireless Client, the most common
of which are:
MSCHAPv2 with PEAPv0
GTC with PEAPv1
EAP-PEAP security is designed for wireless environments where it is necessary to transmit data securely over
a wireless network.

SSID (Service Set Identifier): Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
WAP. The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all
panels on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is
permitted to join the network.
The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
Make sure this setting is the same for all points in the wireless network.
With EAP security, the SSID of the WAP must be entered. If it is left blank,
the panel will try to connect to the first access point detected that supports
EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
detected WAP may be connected to a RADIUS server, which may not
support this EAP type and/or have the proper user identities configured.
Identity: Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter an EAP Identity string (used by the
panel to identify itself to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server).
Note: This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured
server or workstation. This works in tandem with the Password string, which
is similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
Typically, this is in the form of a username such as jdoe@amx.com.
