Wireless VDSL Modem Router

802.1x

802.1x is a robust security protocol that uses port control with dynamically

changing encryption keys automatically updated over the network. 802.1x uses a

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-in Service) server for authentication pur-

poses. This server must be physically connected to the Modem Router. Also, the

user must enable the RADIUS client embedded in the Modem Router.

To set up 802.1x security:

Select the Modem Router’s wireless network name from the SSID drop-down list.

1.

Click in the radio button next to Enable under step 2.

2.

Enter the RADIUS server’s port number in the Radius Port text box.

3.

Enter the RADIUS server’s shared secret in the Radius Key text box.

4.

Enter the group key interval in the Group Key Interval text box.

5.
