WLAN security: configuring
encryption and authentication in
the WLAN
Encryption and authentication can be
defined for the WLAN in the access point,
(page 9).
Setting up an access profile without
encryption and authentication
¤ Check if the value None is selected in
the Encryption and Authentication lists
(default setting).
¤ Click on Next.
For further information, see below:
"Making SIP settings" on page 94.
Setting up encryption with WPA-PSK
¤ Open the Encryption list and select
WPA-PSK.
¤ Enter the WLAN key in the
Pre-Shared Key field.
For WPA-PSK encryption, you cannot set
up authentication with 802.1x. In the
Authentication list, therefore, None is
selected automatically.
¤ Click on Next.
Setting up encryption with WEP
¤ Open the Encryption list and select WEP.
Additional fields are displayed.
¤ For WEP Mode, click on the option 128
or 64 Bit to define the key length
(page 9).
¤ In the WEP Key field, enter the WEP key
in ASCII or hexadecimal format. The
Web configurator recognises the for-
mat automatically.
If standard 802.1x with EAP type LEAP is
used for authentication, it is not neces-
sary to enter a WEP key.
¤ For Authentication Mode, click on the
Open System option if no authentication
is to take place. Click on Shared Key if
the WEP key is to be used for authenti-
cation.
¤ If required, set up authentication with
802.1x (page 93) or click on Next.
Setting up encryption with WPA
¤ Open the Encryption list and select WPA.
¤ Set up authentication with 802.1x
(page 93).
Setting up authentication with 802.1x
¤ Open the Authentication list and select
802.1x.
Setting up authentication with LEAP/TLS
¤ For EAP Type, click on the LEAP / TLS
option. Additional fields are displayed.
¤ Enter the login and password for WLAN
access in the Login Name / Password
fields.
For authentication with TLS you also
require a certificate:
¤ Open the Certificate list and select the
certificate.
¤ If necessary, click on Validate Server
Certificate. With this option activated,
the handset checks the validity of the
server certificate received from the
access point.
¤ Click on Next.
Note:
Encryption and authentication for the handset
must agree with the settings for the access
point.
Notes:
– You can only use WPA in the WLAN if all
subscribers support WPA.
– WPA requires authentication with 802.1x.
Notes:
– To find out how to administer certificates in
the Web configurator, see Admin
£ Certificates (page 101).
– For authentication via certificates, the date
must be correctly set on the handset.
