Key—The shared secret key for WPA Personal security. Enter a string of at least 8 
characters to a maximum of 63 characters. Acceptable characters include uppercase 
and lowercase alphabetic letters, the numeric digits, and special symbols such as @ 
and #.
Key Strength Meter—The WAP device checks the key against complexity criteria such 
as how many different types of characters (uppercase and lowercase alphabetic letters, 
numbers, and special characters) are used and how long the string is. If the WPA-PSK 
complexity check feature is enabled, the key is not accepted unless it meets the 
minimum criteria. See 
 for information on configuring the 
complexity check.
Broadcast Key Refresh Rate—The interval at which the broadcast (group) key is 
refreshed for clients associated with this VAP. The default is 300 seconds and the valid 
range is from 0 to 86400 seconds. A value of 0 indicates that the broadcast key is not 
refreshed. 
WPA Enterprise
WPA Enterprise
WPA Enterprise with RADIUS is an implementation of the Wi-Fi Alliance IEEE 802.11i 
standard, which includes CCMP (AES), and TKIP encryption. The Enterprise mode requires 
the use of a RADIUS server to authenticate users.
This security mode is backwards-compatible with wireless clients that support the original 
WPA.
These parameters configure WPA Enterprise:
WPA Versions—The types of client stations to be supported:
-
WPa-TKIP—The network has some client stations that only support original WPA 
and TKIP security protocol. Note that selecting only WPA-TKIP for the access 
point is not allowed as per the latest WiFi Alliance requirement. 
-
WPA2-AES—All client stations on the network support WPA2 version and AES-
CCMP cipher/ security protocol. This WPA version provides the best security per 
the IEEE 802.11i standard. As per the latest WiFi Alliance requirement, the AP has 
to support this mode all the time.
Enable pre-authentication—If for WPA Versions you select only WPA2 or both WPA 
and WPA2, you can enable pre-authentication for WPA2 clients.
