802.1X WEP
If 802.1X WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) was selected, the “WEP+802.1x Radius
Settings” screen appears. To generate the full screen, click in the “Enabled” check
box to activate.
802.1x WEP is a robust security protocol that uses port control with dynamically
changing encryption keys automatically updated over the network. 802.11x WEP
uses a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-in Service) server for authentication
purposes. This server must be physically connected to the Router. Also, the user
must enable the RADIUS client embedded in the Router (to do this, see chapter
9, “Advanced Settings”).
1. Click in the “Enabled” check box to enable WEP+802.1x security.
2. Enter the RADIUS server IP address in the “Server IP” text boxes.
3. Enter the RADIUS server’s port number in the “Server Port” text box.
4. Enter the RADIUS server’s shared secret in the “Shared Secret” text box.
5. Click Apply to save changes.
