 Edit Profile: This is used to select the profile to be
viewed or, if you are an administrator, edited.
 Actions: Four actions are available, with the first three
available only to an administrator:
- New: Create a new profile with default settings and
give it a unique name (and then change settings
using other selections on the window).
- Rename: Give the profile a new name, one that is
not assigned to another profile.
- Delete: Delete the profile, provided that it is not the
active profile.
-Scan: Open a window that lists access points that
are broadcasting their SSIDs. Each time you tap the
Refresh button, you view an updated list of APs, with
each row showing an AP’s SSID, its received signal
strength indication (RSSI), and whether or not data
encryption is in use (true or false). You can sort the
list by clicking on the column headers. If you are
authorized as an administrator, select an SSID in the
list, and tap Commit, you are returned to the Profile
window to create a profile for that SSID.
 Radio: Radio attributes in the list box can be selected
individually. When an attribute is selected, the current
setting or an appropriate selection box with the current
setting highlighted appears on the right.
 Security: Values for the two primary security attributes,
EAP type and encryption type, are displayed in
separate dropdown lists, with the current values
highlighted. When you as an administrator select an
EAP type, the Credentials button appears; when this
button is tapped, a dialog box appears that enables you
to define authentication credentials for that EAP type.
When you as an administrator select an encryption type
that requires the definition of WEP keys or a pre-shared
key, the PSKs/WEP Keys button appears; when you tap
it, a dialog box appears that enables you to define WEP
keys or a PSK.
 Commit: To ensure that changes to profile settings
made on the window are saved in the profile, you must
tap the Commit button.
 SSID: This is the name or identification of the WLAN.
 EAP type: This is the protocol used to authenticate the
device and its user if the WLAN uses the Enterprise
version of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and WPA2.
 Encryption: This specifies the type of key used to
encrypt and decrypt transmitted data and how that key
is specified or derived. Encryption options include:
-WPA2 or WPA with dynamic keys (derived from the
EAP authentication process)
-WPA2 or WPA with pre-shared keys
-Static WEP keys
