EAP – WPA™ or WPA2™ with EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) IEEE 802.1x
authentication method. This method is commonly used in Enterprise networks.
WPA Pre-shared Key: the pass phrase for WPA™ or WPA2™ security method should be specified if the
Pre-shared Key method is selected. The pre-shared key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63
characters long.
MAC ACL: MAC Access Control List (ACL) provides the ability to allow or deny certain clients to
connect to the AP (applicable for AP and AP WDS modes only).
MAC ACL can be enabled by selecting the Enabled option.
There are two ways to set the Access Control List:
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have granted access to the Access Point. Access
will be denied for all remaining clients - MAC ACL Policy is set to Allow.
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have denied access to the Access Point. Access
will be granted for all remaining clients - MAC ACL Policy is set to Deny.
The MAC addresses of wireless clients can be added and removed to the list using the Add and Remove
buttons.
Note: MAC Access Control is the weakest security approach. WPA™ or WPA2™ security methods should
be used when possible.
