Configuring a Security Profile

Context

You need to configure a security profile and a security policy for the WDS to ensure security. The WPA2+PSK+AES security policy is recommended for a WDS security profile. For details about WPA2, PSK, and AES, see WLAN Security Configuration.

By default, the system provides the WDS profile default. By default, the security profile default-wds with the security policy WPA2+PSK+AES and the security key huawei_secwds is referenced by a WDS profile regardless of whether the WDS profile is the default profile provided by the system or a WDS profile created by users. If the default security profile default-wds is used, you are advised to change the security key of the profile to ensure security.
