N450 Wireless Router WNR2500 WPA/WPA2 Enterprise This security option is not for home use but is typically used in a business or enterprise. WPA/WPA2 Enterprise does not use a passphrase but supports 802.1x authentication, which requires an internal or external RADIUS server. A Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server provides Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) management to grant (or deny) computers access to your wireless network. WPA/WPA2 Enterprise can support WPA [TKIP] for WPA clients only, WPA2 [AES] for WPA2 clients only, and WPA [TKIP] + WPA2 [AES]. WPA [TKIP] + WPA2 [AES] is a combination of TKIP and AES encryption for both WPA and WPA2 clients. WPA clients are supported at speeds of up to 54 Mbps only. WPA2 clients are supported at speeds of up 300 Mbps. WPA/WPA2 Enterprise supports five Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication methods: EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2, PEAPv0/EAP-MSCHAPv2, PEAPv1/EAP-GTC, and EAP-SIM.  To configure WPA/WPA2 Enterprise security: 1. Select BASIC > Wireless. 2. In the Security Options sections of the Wireless Settings screen, select the WPA/WPA2 Enterprise radio button. 3. Select the WPA mode (WPA [TKIP], WPA2 [AES], or WPA [TKIP] + WPA2 [AES]). 4. Type the IP address of the RADIUS server. The address can be on your LAN or it can be an external address. 5. Enter the port number for the RADIUS server in the range from 1 to 65535 (the default number is 1812). 6. Type the shared secret, which must be from 1 through 128 characters (the default value is blank). The shared secret is case-sensitive. 7. Click the Apply button. genie BASIC Settings 32
