Conguring DWL-8220AP Access Points
Encryption
Encrypted SSIDs can use the following encryption methods:
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
• Non-WPA dynamic Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
• Non-WPA static WEP
Dynamic WEP is enabled by default.
Radio Proles
You can easily assign radio conguration parameters to many radios by conguring a radio
prole and assigning the prole to the radios. To use a radio, you must assign a prole to the
radio. You can enable the radio when you assign the prole.
The table below summarizes the parameters controlled by radio proles. Generally, the
only radio parameters controlled by the prole that you need to modify are the SSIDs and,
if applicable, Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) settings. The other parameter settings are
standard.
