Note: You must configure Radius Server Settings (see Figure 3-13 on page 3-27) with either
Legacy 802.1x or WPA with Radius option.
• Data Encryption: Select the desired option. If enabled (64 bit, 128 bit or 152 bits) the keys
must be entered, and other wireless stations must use the same keys. The default is None.
– The 64- and 128-bit option are the standard encryption strength options.
– The 152-bit key length is a proprietary mode that will only work with other wireless
devices that support this mode.
– The TKIP option is automatically enabled when either WPA with Radius or WPA-PSK
authentication type is selected.
• Passphrase: To use the passphrase to generate the keys, enter a passphrase and click the
Generate Keys button. You can also enter the keys directly. These keys must match the other
wireless stations. Only 8 to 63 characters can be entered if Legacy 802.1x or WPA with
Radius authentication option is selected.
• Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4: Select the key to be used as the default key. Data transmissions
are always encrypted using the default key. The other keys can only be used to decrypt
received data. The four entries will be disabled if Legacy 802.1x or WPA with Radius
authentication option is selected.
• Re-authentication Time: The time interval in seconds after which the supplicant will be
authenticated again with the Radius Server. The default is 3600 seconds.
• Global-key Update: Check on this option to enable Re-keying of Global Key. The Global
Key Re-Key can be done based on time interval in seconds or number of packets exchanged
using the global key. The default is 3600 seconds.
• Update if any station disassociates: Check on this option to refresh global key when any
stations disassociated with wireless Access Point.
• Wireless Client Security Separator: The associated wireless clients will not be able to
communicate with each other if this feature is enabled. The default setting is Disable.
