Configure Security Profiles for the Basic Profile Group
The basic profile group works well for small-scale WLAN networks. NETGEAR recommends
that you read the information in the previous section, Wireless Security Profile Concepts,
before you configure any profiles.
Configure Profiles in the Basic Profile Group
The Edit Profile (Basic) screen lets you create and configure up to eight security profiles per
wireless radio (eight profiles for a single-band access point; 16 profiles for a dual-band
access point). Separate profiles are applied to 802.11b/bg/ng-mode and 802.11a/na-mode
radios.
To add a security profile to the basic profile group and configure the security profile:
1. Select Configuration > Profile > Basic > Radio.
The Edit Profile (Basic) screen displays:
Click + to add another profile.
Your selection from
the Network
Authentication menu
determines the
information that is
displayed onscreen.
Select the Local radio
button to display the
Local MAC ACL
Group menu.

By default, an NG_11g profile and an NG_11a profile are present in the basic profile
group.
2. Click the tab for the radio for which you want to add a profile.
