Wired Authentication on aW-IAP
W-Instant supports wired authentication on the Ethernet uplink (Ethernet 0) and downlink
(Ethernet 1/Ethernet 2) ports of an W-Instant AP.
The following wired authentication methods are supported:
l MAC Authentication
l Captive Portal Authentication
l 802.1X Wired Authentication
To configure wired authentication on aW-IAP:
1. Click the Wired link on the upper right corner of the Dell W-Series Instant UI.
2. Click on the Network assignments drop-down lists to apply an existing Ethernet downlink
profile to the Ethernet ports.
NOTE: Configure bridging on the Ethernet port before you apply a profile.
The devices (for example, IP phone / printer) connected to the wired ports are now authenticated
using the profile that is applied to the port. A list of all the wired users is available in the Wired
window.
Certificates
A certificate is a digital file that certifies the identity of the organization or products of the
organization. It is also used to establish your credentials for any web transactions. It contains the
organization name, a serial number, expiration date, a copy of the certificate-holder's public key,
and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that a recipient can ensure that the
certificate is real.
