The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Management
Frame Protection
This field is available only when you select
wpa2
or
wpa2-mix
in the
Security Mode
field and
set
Cipher Type
to
aes
.
Data frames in 802.11 WLANs can be encrypted and authenticated with WEP, WPA or
WPA2. But 802.11 management frames, such as beacon/probe response, association
request, association response, de-authentication and disassociation are always
unauthenticated and unencrypted. IEEE 802.11w Protected Management Frames allows
APs to use the existing security mechanisms (encryption and authentication methods
defined in IEEE 802.11i WPA/WPA2) to protect management frames. This helps prevent
wireless DoS attacks.
Select the check box to enable management frame protection (MFP) to add security to
802.11 management frames.
Select
Optional
if you do not require the wireless clients to support MFP. Management
frames will be encrypted if the clients support MFP.
Select
Required
and wireless clients must support MFP in order to join the AP’s wireless
network.
