Chapter 2 Configuring Wireless Profiles
Viewing and Changing the Settings of a Profile
Radio Measurement
You can enable or disable the radio measurement feature in the Cisco Connection Settings dialog box,
which is available from the profile’s Connection tab in the Wireless Network properties dialog box (see
Step 2
in the
“Viewing and Changing the Settings of a Profile” section on page 2-13
to get to the Cisco
Connection Settings dialog box).
When you check the
Enable Radio Measurement
check box, the radio measurement feature is enabled.
The client driver advertises support for the Cisco wireless LAN radio measurement feature by including
a radio measurement information element when the client associates with the access point. The client
can then service radio measurement requests that the network infrastructure sends.
When you uncheck the
Enable Radio Measurement
check box, the client does not advertise the radio
measurement information element. The client cannot service radio measurement requests that the
network infrastructure sends.
Choose a network
authentication method
From the Choose a network authentication method drop-down list,
choose an authentication method. The choices are the following:
•
Smart Card or other certificate
•
Protected EAP (PEAP)
•
LEAP
•
PEAP-GTC
•
EAP-FAST
Note
Smart Card and Protected EAP (PEAP) are provided by
Microsoft. These methods were not tested by Cisco on the
CB21AG or the PI21AG client adapter.
Note
The Choose a network authentication method drop-down list
appears only when you choose WPA2-Enterprise,
WPA-Enterprise, 802.1X, or CCKM as the security type.
Note
After you choose the network authentication method, click the
Settings
button to configure the authentication methods. For
more information about the authentication method settings, see
the EAP-FAST, PEAP-GTC, and LEAP administrator guides.
Cache user information for
subsequent connections to
this network
Check this check box if you want user information stored for later
connections through this profile to the network.
Note
The Cache user information for subsequent connections to this
network check box appears only when you choose
WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Enterprise, 802.1X, or CCKM as the
security type. These security types rely on a network
authentication method that requires user credentials.
