Linksys LAPN600 User Manual

74
Using WPA2-Enterprise
This is the most secure and most complex system.
WPA-Enterprise mode provides greater security and centralized management, but it is more
complex to configure.
Wireless Station Configuration
For each of the following items, each wireless station must have the same settings as the
wireless access point.
Mode
On each PC, the mode must be set to Infrastructure.
SSID (ESSID)
This must match the value used on the wireless access point.
The default value is LinksysSMB24G for radio 1 and
LinksysSMB5G for radio 2.
Note The SSID is case sensitive.
802.1x
Authentication
Each client must obtain a certificate for authentication for the RADIUS
server.
802.1x
Encryption
Typically, EAP-TLS is used. This is a dynamic key system, so keys do
NOT have to be entered on each wireless station.
You can also use a static WEP key (EAP-MD5). The wireless access
point supports both methods simultaneously.
RADIUS Server Configuration
If using WPA2-Enterprise mode, the RADIUS server on your network must be configured as
follows.
• It must provide and accept Certificates for user authentication.
• There must be a Client Login for the wireless access point itself.
The wireless access point will use its default name as its client login name. (However, your
RADIUS server may ignore this and use the IP address instead.)
The Shared Key, set on the Security Screen of the access point, must match the Shared Secret
value on the RADIUS server.
• Encryption settings must be correct.
