The Wireless - Wireless Security Tab
Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over Ethernet
WPA-Enterprise
This option features WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the Access Point.)
Allow PCs with the same wireless network name (SSID) to see each other. When enabled, devices in the
same wireless network will be able to access each other, so they can transfer files through the network. To deny
access, select Disabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Enabled.
RADIUS Server IP Address. Enter the RADIUS server’s IP address.
WPA Algorithms. WPA offers you two encryption methods, TKIP and AES, with dynamic encryption keys. Select
the type of algorithm you want to use, TKIP or AES.
RADIUS Server Port. Enter the port number used by the RADIUS server.
Shared Secret. Enter the Shared Secret key used by the Access Point and RADIUS server.
Key Renewal Timeout. Enter a Key Renewal Timeout period, which instructs the Access Point how often it
should change the encryption keys.
