• a CN2A with the 802.11b/g radio and the 802.1x/WPA 

security option.

Use these procedures to set WPA-802.1x and WPA-PSK security 
on your CN2A with Funk security. 

Make sure you have configured the communications and 
radio parameters on your CN2A.

Make sure you have selected Funk as your security choice, as 
described in “Choosing Between Funk Security and Microsoft 
Security Software” on page 50.

Make sure the date on the CN2A is correct. For help setting 
the date and time, see Step 4 on page 113.

If you plan to use TLS for authentication, load a user and root 
certificate on your CN2A. For help, see “Loading 
Certificates” on page 65.

Open Intermec Settings.

Tap Communications > 802.11 Radio > Funk Security > 

active_profile, where active_profile is the name of the active 
profile.

For Association, choose WPA and tap 

 or press Enter. 

Encryption is set to TKIP by default.

For Pre-Shared Key, enter the pre-shared key or passphrase 
and press Enter.

The pre-shared key must be a value of 32 hex pairs preceded 
by 0x for a total of 66 characters. The value must match the 
key value on the access point. The passphrase must be from 8 
to 63 characters. After you enter a passphrase, the CN2A 
internally converts it to a pre-shared key.

This value must match the passphrase on the authenticator.

Note: All other profiles are grayed out and cannot be 
configured. To edit another profile, you must make it the 
active profile by selecting it in the Active Profile field.
