Configuring a WLAN Security Policy

You can configure WLAN security policies to authenticate identities of wireless terminals and encrypt user packets, protecting the security of the WLAN and users. The supported WLAN security policies include open system authentication, WEP, WPA/WPA2-PSK, WPA/WPA2-802.1X, WAPI-PSK, and WAPI-certificate. You can configure one of them in a security profile. Open system authentication and WPA/WPA2/-802.1X need to be configured together with NAC to manage user access. For details about NAC, see "NAC Configuration (Unified Mode)" in the S2720, S5700, and S6700 V200R019C10 Configuration Guide - User Access and Authentication Configuration Guide.
