[. . . ] You can view a list of wireless switches on your network that were configured by using a DHCP server. The AP attempts to contact Switch IP Address 1 first. Select the Edit option and enter a passphrase to allow the AP to authenticate itself with the wireless switch. The passphrase must be between 8 and 63 characters. To remove the password, select Edit, delete the existing password, and then click Apply. You must configure the same passphrase on the switch. Pass Phrase Note: After you configure the settings on the Managed Access Point page, you must click Apply to apply the changes and to save the settings. Changing some settings might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic is low. If the UAP successfully authenticates with a D-Link Unified Switch, you will loose access to the AP through the Administrator UI. Page 64 Managed Access Point Overview 34CSFP6XXUAP-SWUM100-D13 Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link UAP CONFIGURING 802. 1X AUTHENTICATION On networks that use IEEE 802. 1X, port-based network access control, a supplicant (client) cannot gain access to the network until the 802. 1X authenticator grants access. If your network uses 802. 1X, you must configure 802. 1X authentication information that the AP can supply to the authenticator. To configure the UAP 802. 1X supplicant user name and password by using the Web interface, click the Authentication tab and configure the fields shown in Table 27. Figure 17: IEEE 802. 1X Authentication Table 27: IEEE 802. 1X Supplicant Authentication Field 802. 1X Supplicant Username Description Click Enabled to enable the Administrative status of the 802. 1X Supplicant. Click Disabled to disable the Administrative status of the 802. 1X Supplicant. Enter the MD5 user name for the AP to use when responding to requests from an 802. 1X authenticator. The user name can be 1 to 64 characters in length. ASCII printable characters are allowed, which includes upper and lower case alphabetic letters, the numeric digits, and special symbols such as @ and #. Enter the MD5 password for the AP to use when responding to requests from an 802. 1X authenticator. The password can be 1 to 64 characters in length. ASCII printable characters are allowed, which includes upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special symbols such as @ and #. Password Note: After you configure the settings on the Authentication page, you must click Apply to apply the changes and to save the settings. Changing some settings might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic is low. 34CSFP6XXUAP-SWUM100-D13 Configuring 802. 1X Authentication Page 65 D-Link UAP Software User Manual 12/10/09 CREATING A MANAGEMENT ACCESS CONTROL LIST You can create an access control list (ACL) that lists up to five IPv4 hosts and five IPv6 hosts that are authorized to access the Web-based AP management interface. [. . . ] Use the apVapQosMode object to set the status of VAP 2 to up (1). Use the apVapAclUp object to apply acl1 to VAP2 in the inbound direction (from the client to the AP). The ACL name is the text string, and not the ASCII code. DiffServ Configuration 1. Load the DLINK-WLAN-ACCESS-POINT-MIB module. [. . . ]
