Chapter 6: Configuring Security

To create a secure spanning tree
Note
You do not need to perform this procedure if you are implementing
an 802.1x security solution. 802.1x authentication automatically
enables secure IAPP and secure wireless hops. See “Implementing
an 802.1x Security Solution” on page 192.
1. From the main menu, click Security > Spanning Tree Security. The
Spanning Tree Security screen appears.
2. Check the Secure IAPP check box.
3. Click Submit Changes to save your changes.
4. In the IAPP Secret Key field, enter a secret key. This secret key must
be between 16 and 32 bytes.
5. Determine how the access points authenticate to the network:
Check the Allow SWAP check box if you have older access points
or you are not implementing an 802.1x security solution.
Check the Allow TLS check box, if you are implementing an 802.1x
security solution and you want to use TLS. The access point must
have a server certificate loaded on it.
Check the Allow TTLS (MSCHAPv2) check box, if you are
implementing an 802.1x security solution and you want to use
TTLS. You must also enter a User Name and Password that
matches an entry in the authentication server.
