Chapter 3: Using the UniFi Controller Software
•  Key Index  Specify which Index of the WEP Key 
to use. Four different WEP keys can be configured 
at the same time, but only one is used. Select the 
effective key: 1, 2, 3, or 4.
 - WPA-Personal  WPA or Wi-Fi Protected Access was 
developed as an encryption method stronger than 
WEP. WPA-Personal requires a passphrase to connect 
to the wireless network.
•  Security Key  Enter the passphrase that users will 
use to connect to the wireless network.
 - WPA-Enterprise  WPA Enterprise uses a RADIUS 
server to authenticate users on the wireless network.
•  RADIUS Profile  Specify a RADIUS profile:
• Select a RADIUS profile from the drop-down list, 
or
• Click 
CREATE NEW RADIUS PROFILE
 to create a new RADIUS 
profile. Refer to “Create New RADIUS Profile” on 
page 39 for detailed information.
•  Hotspot 2.0  Select this option to enable Hotspot 
2.0. Then select a Hotspot profile from the drop-
down list.
•  Guest Policy  Select this option to enable guest access 
policies on this wireless network.
Advanced Options
Click to display options for advanced users.
•  VLAN  To use a VLAN, select Use VLAN ID and enter the 
VLAN ID number. If you enable WPA Enterprise, you have 
another option:
 - Enable RADIUS assigned VLAN (beta)  Select this 
option to allow the RADIUS server to dynamically 
assign a VLAN to a wireless client. 
If you set a VLAN ID as a static value for another SSID 
on the same AP, then you cannot re-use the same 
VLAN ID for the RADIUS-assigned (dynamic) VLAN. For 
example, if you have a VLAN set to VLAN 10, then you 
cannot use VLAN ID 10 for RADIUS-controlled VLAN 
users as those users will not be assigned an IP address.
•  Hide SSID  Select this option if you don’t want the 
wireless network name or SSID to be broadcast.
•  WPA Mode  (Available if WPA security is enabled.) Select 
the appropriate WPA method: Both, WPA1 Only, or 
WPA2 Only (default).
•  Encryption  Select the appropriate encryption method: 
Auto, TKIP Only, or AES/CCMPOnly (default).
•  User Group  Assign wireless users to a specific user 
group. For more information about user groups, see 
“Settings > User Groups” on page 40.
•  UAPSD  Disabled by default. Unscheduled Automatic 
Power Save Delivery. Select this option to enable the 
power save mode of Wi-Fi devices.

wireless access to the schedule you set.

times of the day’s wireless access.
