CongureWPA2
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless Router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to
the added overhead.
If you are using a RADIUS server for wireless authentication that is using WPA2 encryption, carry out the following:
1. Log into the Web-based conguration by opening a Web browser and entering the IP address of the Router
(192.168.0.1). Click Security at the top of the window.
2. Go to 802.11Authentication and select Open.
3. Go to WPA2 and toggle Disabled to Enabled.
4. Go to RADIUSServerand enter the IP address of your RADIUS server.
5. Go to RADIUSPort and enter the port number that is being used by your RADIUS server. 1812 is the default port.
6. Go to RADIUSKey and enter the security key that is being used by your RADIUS server.
7. Go to WPAEncryption and select AES or TKIP+AE.
8. Go to NetworkKeyRotationInterval and enter a value, in seconds, for the interval for cycling through the network
keys entered above. If this eld is left blank, this feature is disabled.
9. Go to NetworkRe-authInterval and enter a value, in seconds, for the interval for periodic network re-authentication.
If this eld is left blank, this feature is disabled.
10. Click Apply to save your settings. If you are conguring the Router with a wireless adapter, you will lose connectivity
until you enable WPA2 on your adapter and enter the same passphrase as you did on the Router.
