Wireless Security - EAP-FAST Settings

SSID (Service Set Identifier):

The SSID is the unique name used on the WAP and then assigned to all
panels in a wireless network that are communicating to the same target WAP.

• This is required by the WAP before the panel is permitted to join the

wireless network.

• It is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters, which may be any

keyboard character. Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your
wireless network.

• This unique string identifies the network and is the same string for all users

on the same network.

• Use the on-screen keyboard’s Clear button to completely erase any

previously stored SSID information.

• Note: In all cases, the SSID of the WAP must be entered. If it is left blank,

the panel will try to connect to the first access point which can be found that
supports EAP. In this situation however, a successful
connection is not guaranteed because the identified WAP may be
connected to a RADIUS server which does not support the specified EAP
type and/or may not have the proper user identities configured.

Identity:

When pressed, the panel displays an on-screen keyboard which allows you
to enter an EAP Identity string which is how the panel identifies itself to the
Authentication (RADIUS) Server.

• This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured server

or workstation. This works in tandem with the Password string which is
similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.

Note: Typically, this is in the form of a username such as: [email protected]

• Use the on-screen keyboard’s Clear button to completely erase any

previously stored identity/username information.

Anonymous Identity:

When pressed, the panel displays an on-screen keyboard which allows you
to enter an IT provided alpha-numeric string which is similar to the username
used as the identity but does not represent a real user.

• This information is used as a fictitious name which might be seen by

wireless preying eyes (such as sniffer programs) during the initial
connection and setup process between the panel and the Radius server. In
this way the real identity (username) will never be seen by anyone.

Note: Typically, this is in the form of a fictitious username such as:
[email protected]

• Use the on-screen keyboard’s Clear button to completely erase any

previously stored identity/username information.

Required Information:

- SSID (Network Name used by the Target WAP)
- Identity (similar to the Username used for network access)
- Anonymous Identity (similar to a fictitious call-sign)
- Password (similar to the Password used for network access)
