ProSafe 20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520 Table 15. Basic security profile definition settings (continued) Setting Description Client Authentication section Note: The options that display onscreen depend on the selection from Network Authentication drop-down list. Network Authentication From the drop-down list, select the authentication type to be used: see Table 16 on page 81. Data Encryption From the drop-down list, select the data encryption type to be used. The options available for data encryption as well as other requirements such as entering a key or passphrase depend on the network authentication settings: see Table 16 on page 81. Wireless Client Security Separation From the drop-down list, select Disable to prevent associated wireless clients from communicating with each other or Enable to allow such communication. Wireless client separation is intended for hotspots and other public access situations. VLAN Enter the VLAN ID to be associated with this security profile. This VLAN ID needs to match the VLAN ID that is used by other network devices. Authentication Settings section Note: The options that display onscreen depend on the selection from Network Authentication drop-down list. Open System, Shared Key, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK MAC ACL Select one of the following radio buttons: • Local. Use local MAC authentication. The Local MAC ACL Group drop-down list displays so you can select a group. For more information, see Manage MAC Authentication and MAC Authentication Groups on page 117. • External. Use external MAC authentication. The External Radius Server drop-down list displays so you can select a server. You can use either the basic-Auth RADIUS server or a RADIUS server of an advanced authentication group. You cannot use the external LDAP server. For information about setting up and enabling internal and external authentication servers, see Manage Authentication Servers and Authentication Server Groups on page 122. Note: The MAC ACL radio buttons do not display onscreen if the network authentication uses an external RADIUS server. The reason for this is that you can configure either MAC authentication with an external RADIUS server or network authentication with an external RADIUS server, but not both. That is, if you configure an external RADIUS server with WPA, WPA2, or WPA & WPA2 (or you use Legacy 802.1X) , you cannot use external MAC authentication, and the MAC ACL radio buttons do not display on screen. You still can use internal MAC authentication. Managing Security Profiles and Profile Groups 79
