CONFIGURING THE ACCESS POINT FOR WPA EAP-TLS
AUTHENTICATION
WPA increases security further by using TKIP (Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol) as an encryption scheme instead of WEP. All
the access point settings are the same as described previously
for standard EAP-TLS except for the changes below
• Set the access point to use a cipher as the encryption mode, and
select TKIP as the cipher type.
• Configure the Authenticated key Management to be mandatory
using WPA.
• The WPA Pre-shared key should be set to ASCII.
