WPA PSK doesn't work with MAC Authentication. AP1231G

TinaLutterbach · ‎01-31-2007

Hi, yesterday I've installed an Aironet Access Point 1200 series AP1231G for the first time.

I'd like to use MAC Authentication with an WPA Pre-Shared Key. But it doesn't work. If I choose "Open Authentication with MAC Authentication", I can't type an WPA Pre-Shared Key. The system doesn't keep it.

It only works with "Open Authentication" without MAC-Filter.

Settings:

Encryption Manager: TKIP

SSID Manager

1. Client Authentication: Open Authentication with MAC Authentication

2. Key Managemnet: Mandatory WPA + WPA Pre-Shared-Key

If I type in a Pre-Shared-Key and click on "Apply", the Pre-Shared-Key get loss.

Tina,

In Cisco IOS releases 12.3(4)JA and later, you cannot enable both MAC-address authentication and WPA-PSK.
