Enable 802.1x Security
Follow these steps to enable 802.1x only:
1. Within the 802.1x Configuration screen, set 802.1x Security
Mode to 802.1x.
2. Select an Encryption Key Length.
— An 802.11b AP supports 64-bit and 128-bit encryption.
— An 802.11a or 802.11b/g AP supports 64-bit and 128-bit
encryption.
3. Enter a Re-keying Interval.
— The Re-keying Interval determines how often a client’s
encryption key is changed and can be set to any value
between 60 - 65535 seconds. Rekeying frustrates hacking
attempts without taxing system resources. Setting a fairly
frequent rekey value (900 seconds=15 minutes) effectively
protects against intrusion without disrupting network activities.
