Encryption settings

For access to a WLAN, the appropriate encryption methods and key must be set in the client station.

  1. To enter the key, change to the '802.11i/WEP' tab under LANconfig in the 'Wireless LAN' configuration area. From 'WPA / private WEP settings', select the first WLAN interface from the list of logical WLAN settings.




  1. Enable encryption and match the encryption method to the settings for the access point.
  2. In WLAN client operating mode, the LANCOM Access Points and LANCOM Wireless Routers can authenticate themselves to another access point using EAP/802.1X. For this, select the desired client EAP method here. Note that the selected client EAP method must match the settings of the access point that the device is attempting to log onto.
    Note: Depending on the EAP method, the appropriate certificates must be stored in the device:
  3. For TTLS and PEAP – the EAP/TLS root certificate only; the key is entered as a combination username:password.
    • For TLS in addition; the EAP/TLS device certificate including the private key.
    Note: When working with WPA or 802.1X, settings may need to be made in the RADIUS server.
