• WPA(RADIUS) or WPA / WPA2(RADIUS) – Enables WPA(RADIUS) or WPA /
WPA2(RADIUS) security on the VAP interface.
Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) is an authentication
protocol that uses software running on a central server to control access to
RADIUS-aware devices on the network. An authentication server contains a
database of user credentials for each user that requires access to the network.
A primary RADIUS server must be specified for the Mini AP Router to
implement IEEE 802.1x network access control and Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) wireless security. A secondary RADIUS server may also be specified as
a backup should the primary server fail or become inaccessible.
- Secret Key: A shared text string used to encrypt messages between the Mini AP
Router and the RADIUS server. Be sure that the same text string is specified on
the RADIUS server. Do not use blank spaces in the string.
- Confirm Secret Key: Enter the key for verification.
- RADIUS IP Address: Specifies the IP address or host name of the RADIUS
server.
- RADIUS Port: The UDP port number used by the RADIUS server for
authentication messages. (Range: 1024-65535; Default:1812).
