EAP-FAST
From the Security Modes options, press the Enterprise button to open the Wireless Security: Enterprise Mode page.
Scroll through the Security Type options to select EAP-FAST (FIG. 84).
EAP-FAST (Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling) security was designed for wireless environments where
security and ease of setup are equally desirable. EAP-FAST uses a certificate file, however it can be configured to
download the certificate automatically the first time the panel attempts to authenticate itself. Automatic certificate
downloading is convenient but slightly less secure, since its the certificate is transferred wirelessly and could
theoretically be “sniffed-out”.

SSID (Service Set Identifier): Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target AP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the AP, and is assigned to all panels on
that network. An SSID is required by the AP before the panel is permitted to
join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in the wireless network.
• With EAP security, the SSID of the AP must be entered. If it is left blank,
the panel will try to connect to the first access point detected that supports
EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
detected AP may be connected to a RADIUS server, which may not
support this EAP type and/or have the proper user identities configured.
Identity: Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter an EAP Identity string (used by the
panel to identify itself to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server).
Note: This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured
server or workstation. This works in tandem with the Password string which is
similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
Typically, this is in the form of a username such as: jdoe@amx.com.
