Configuring WPA2-Enterprise Mixed

This security mode supports the transition from WPA-Enterprise to WPA2-

Enterprise. You can have client devices that use either WPA-Enterprise or WPA2-

Enterprise. The access point will automatically choose the encryption algorithm

used by each client device.

CAUTION Use this mode only when a RADIUS server is connected to the access point.

To enable wireless WPA2-Enterprise Mixed security, follow these steps:

STEP 1 Click Wireless > Security.

STEP 2 From the Security Mode drop-down menu, select WPA2-Enterprise Mixed.

STEP 3 To enable wireless isolation within the SSID, click Enabled.

STEP 4 Provide the following information:

• Primary/Backup RADIUS Server—Enter the IP address of the RADIUS

server. The Backup Radius server is used only if the primary server is

unavailable.

• Primary/Backup RADIUS Server Port—Enter the port number used by

the RADIUS server. The default is 1812. The backup Radius server is used

only if the primary server is unavailable.

• Primary/Backup Shared Secret—Enter the Shared Secret key used by the

access point and RADIUS server. The backup Radius server is used only if

the primary server is unavailable.

• WPA Algorithms—WPA offers you two encryption methods, TKIP and AES

for data encryption. Select one of these algorithms. The default is TKIP.

• Key Renewal Timeout—Enter a key renewal timeout period, which

instructs the access point how often it should change the encryption keys.

The default is 3600 seconds.

STEP 5 Click Save.
