Configuring Network EMAP A device uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to interact with an
EAP-compatible RADIUS server on your network to provide authentication for
wireless client devices.

1. Click Security.
2. From the Security menu, click SSID Manager.
3. In the Current SSID list, select the SSID for the EAP authentication type.
If you need to create a new SSID, continue to Step 4. Otherwise, skip to
Step 7.
4. Select <NEW> from the Current SSID List.
5. Provide the SSID name in the SSID text field.
6. From the VLAN pull-down list, select the VLAN to be used for this SSID.
Select <NONE> if VLANs are not enabled. You can use the Define
VLANs link to go to Services>VLAN and configure one.
7. Under Authentication Methods Accepted, check the Network EAP check
box.
8. Click Apply to create the SSID.
Now that the SSID is configured, you must configure the encryption. Complete
these steps to configure the encryption.
1. Click Security.
2. From the Security menu, click Encryption Manager.
3. From the Set Encryption Mode and Keys for VLAN pull-down menu,
select the VLAN corresponding to the SSID you added above.
