Enable WPA Mode
NOTE:
For Dual-radio APs: WPA is available for APs with an 11a Upgrade
Kit or 802.11b/g Kit. WPA is NOT available for APs with an 802.11b
PC Card or a 5 GHz Upgrade Kit.
1. Click Configure > Security > Authentication.
2. Set Authentication Mode to WPA.
3. Enter a Re-keying Interval.
— The Re-keying Interval determines how often a client's
encryption key is changed and can be set to any value
between 60 and 65535 seconds. Rekeying frustrates hacking
attempts without taxing system resources. Setting a fairly
frequent rekey value (900 seconds=15 minutes) effectively
protects against intrusion without disrupting network activities.
4. Click OK.
5. If you have not already done so, configure the RADIUS
authentication settings.
6. Reboot the Access Point.
