How can I configure WPA on an 877w?

whiteford · ‎12-05-2007

Hi, I have an 877w configured in VPN mode to my HQ. All works fine. Now I would like to give this remote site wireless access via this 877w. Is there an example config anywhere as i just want to create an SSID and perhaps WPA-PSK authentication?

What I would love to do is authenticate users via a windows RADIUS server at the HQ.

Let me know if you wan the config attached.

WPA-PSK configuration is supported on 877w. Here is a sample configuration on CLI

int dot0

encryption mode ciphers tkip

ssid

authentication open

authentication key-management wpa

wpa-psk ascii can be between 8 and 63 ASCI Itext characters

Thanks, I have added that and can see it, but don't get a DHCP address, how do I auto assign a DHCP address to the wireless users?

Nat the scope you have assigned to the Vlan or network.

Hi, I'm not sure I understand, do you have an example? I have added the above example and my laptop sees the wireless network when I search, I put in the pre-shared key and authentcate, but it fails on assigning and IP.

I have a lan dhcp scope and a VLAN 1 which is my local router IP.

Let me know if you want the config uploaded.

You must briging the Dot11Radio0 and Fe0.

Then let you lan dhcp server to assign IP adress.

Config example:

bridge-group 1

interface Dot11Radio0

bridge-group 1

int Fe0

bridge-group 1
