Description
N/A
security rsn ciphers
The command is used to configure an encryption method for a WLAN in the RSN authentication
mode. This command has no no prefix, and any configuration prefixed with no does not work at all.
The command format is:
security rsn ciphers { aes | tkip } { enable | disable }
Parameter
Description
Parameter Description
aes
Indicates to configure the encryption method to AES.
tkip
The parameter indicates to configure the encryption method to TKIP.
enable
Indicates that you enable an encryption method in the RSN
authentication mode.
disable
Indicates to disable an encryption method in the RSN authentication
mode.
Defaults
N/A
Command
mode
WLAN security configuration mode.
Usage Guide
The command is used to enable an encryption method in the RSN authentication mode. Only after
the RSN authentication mode is enabled can an encryption method be configured. There are two
encryption methods: AES and TKIP. When you use the RSN authentication, you need to configure an
encryption method and an authentication method. If only an encryption or authentication method is
configured, or neither is configured, the wireless client cannot be associated with the wireless
network. The RSN authentication mode is what is usually called WPA2 authentication mode. If both
WPA and RSN authentication modes are configured simultaneously for a WLAN, the encryption and
authentication methods in these two authentication modes are identical, and the newly configured
encryption and authentication methods will override the previous ones.
Configuration
Examples
The following example configures the encryption method for WLAN1 in the RSN authentication mode
to AES.
Ruijie (config)#wlansec 1
Ruijie(wlansec)# security rsn ciphers aes enable
The following example disables the AES encryption method for WLAN1 in the RSN authentication
mode.
Ruijie (config)#wlansec 1
Ruijie(wlansec)# security wpa ciphers aes disable
The following example configures the encryption method for WLAN1 in the RSN authentication mode
to TKIP.
