Supported Standards and Conventions
The wireless access point supports the following standards and conventions:
• S
tandards compliance. The wireless access point complies with the IEEE 802.11a/b/g
standards for wireless LANs and is Wi-Fi certified for 802.11n standard.
• WP
A and WPA2. The wireless access point provides WPA and WPA2 enterprise-class
strong security with RADIUS and certificate authentication as well as dynamic encryption
key generation. The WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK pre-shared key authentication does not
have the overhead of RADIUS servers but provides the strong security of WPA.
• Mul
tiple BSSIDs. The wireless access point supports multiple BSSIDs. When a wireless
access point is connected to a wired network and a set of wireless stations, it is called a
basic service set (BSS). The basic service set identifier (BSSID) is a unique identifier
attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that differentiates one WLAN from
another when a mobile device tries to connect to the network.
The multiple BSSID feature allows you to configure up to 16 SSIDs (8 per radio, but only
one r
adio can be active at a time) on your wireless access point and assign different
configuration settings to each SSID. All the configured SSIDs are active, and the network
devices can connect to the wireless access point by using any of these SSIDs.
