Note: Once you enable user authentication, you need to specify an external RADIUS

server or create local user accounts on the Prestige for authentication.

5.7.3 Authentication Required: WPA

Select Authentication Required in the Wireless Port Control field and WPA in the Key

Management Protocol field to display the next screen.

Idle Timeout

(in Seconds)

The Prestige automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network

after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the username and

password again before access to the wired network is allowed.

This field is activated only when you select Authentication Required in the

Wireless Port Control field. The default time interval is 3600 seconds (or 1 hour).

Key Management

Protocol

Choose 802.1x from the drop-down list.

Dynamic WEP Key

Exchange

This field is activated only when you select Authentication Required in the

Wireless Port Control field. Also set the Authentication Databases field to

RADIUS Only. Local user database may not be used.

Select Disable to allow wireless stations to communicate with the access points

without using dynamic WEP key exchange.

Select 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP or 256-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

Up to 32 stations can access the Prestige when you configure dynamic WEP key

exchange.

This field is not available when you set Key Management Protocol to WPA or

WPA-PSK.

Authentication

Databases

The authentication database contains wireless station login information. The local

user database is the built-in database on the Prestige. The RADIUS is an external

server. Use this drop-down list box to select which database the Prestige should

use (first) to authenticate a wireless station.

Before you specify the priority, make sure you have set up the corresponding

database correctly first.

Select Local User Database Only to have the Prestige just check the built-in user

database on the Prestige for a wireless station's username and password.

Select RADIUS Only to have the Prestige just check the user database on the

specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and password.

Select Local first, then RADIUS to have the Prestige first check the user

database on the Prestige for a wireless station's username and password. If the

user name is not found, the Prestige then checks the user database on the

specified RADIUS server.

Select RADIUS first, then Local to have the Prestige first check the user

database on the specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and

password. If the Prestige cannot reach the RADIUS server, the Prestige then

checks the local user database on the Prestige. When the user name is not found

or password does not match in the RADIUS server, the Prestige will not check the

local user database and the authentication fails.

Back Click Back to go to the main wireless LAN setup screen.

Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige.

Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
