Table 19 SSID & Security: WPA
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Security Mode Select WPA from the drop-down list.
WPA/RADIUS
Rekey Interval This is the rate at which the RADIUS server sends a new group key out to all
clients. The re-keying process is the WPA equivalent of automatically changing the
WEP key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis. Enter a time
interval between 0 and 3600 seconds.
RADIUS The NXC-8160 can use an external RADIUS server to authenticate an unlimited
number of users.
RADIUS Server
IP Address
Enter the IP address of the external authentication server in dotted decimal
notation.
RADIUS Server
Port
The default port of the RADIUS server for authentication is 1812.
You need not change this value unless your network administrator instructs you to
do so with additional information.
Share Secret Enter a password (up to 31 alphanumeric characters) as the key to be shared
between the external authentication server and the NXC-8160.
The key is not sent over the network. This key must be the same on the external
authentication server and NXC-8160.
