2. Click the checkbox by the AP you want to provision, then click Provision. The Provisioning window opens.

5. Enter and confirm the pre-shared key (IKE PSK).
6. In the User credential assignment section, specify if you want to use a Global User Name/password or a Per AP
User Name/Password.
a. If you use the Per AP User Names/Passwords option, each RAP is given its own user name and password.
b. If you use the Global User Name/Password option, all selected RAPs are given the same (shared) user name
