Configure Encryption Parameters
NOTE: Be sure to set the encryption parameters and change the default passwords.
You can protect the wireless data link by using encryption. Encryption keys can be 5 (64-bit), 13 (WEP 128-bit), or 16
(AES 128-bit) characters in length. Both ends of the wireless data link must use the same parameter values.
In addition to Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), the unit supports Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES) 128-bit encryption. To provide even stronger encryption, the AES CCM Protocol is also
supported.
Click Configure > Security > Encryption to set encryption keys for the data transmitted and received by the unit. Note
that all devices in one network must use the same encryption parameters to communicate to each other.
Configure RADIUS Authentication
Click Configure > Security > Radius Auth to set the IP address of the RADIUS server containing the central list of MAC
addresses that are allowed to access the network. The RADIUS parameters let you enable HTTP or Telnet RADIUS
management access to configure a RADIUS Profile for management access control, to enable or disable local user
access, and to configure the local password.
RADIUS authentication is available only for BSUs.
