network, refer to Table 7-2 and Table 7-3 for a summary of the access point
configuration procedures.
For more details on security configurations that are possible using the CLI,
see
“CLI: Configuring Security Settings” on page 7-24.

management.
Encryption index, length,
and type configured in
the access point must
match those configured
in the stations.
Dynamic WEP:
1. Enable Dynamic WEP
Security.
2. Set the Authentication
Server and Protocol.
3. Set RADIUS Key.

radius-accounting <primary | secondary> <ip
<ip> | port <port> | key <key>>
radius <primary | secondary>
*The radius-key value is used with an external
RADIUS server only and is ignored for the
internal radius server. It should be set to the
shared secret key that is configured on the
external RADIUS server.
RADIUS server
required.
802.1X
supplicant
required.
WEP supported
station required.
The built-in
authentication server
can be used on the
access point or on an
external RADIUS server.
To use the built-in
authentication server,
set the RADIUS IP
address to that used by
the built-in server, and
turn RADIUS accounting
off (because it is not
supported by the built-in
server).
