Configure privacy by WPA-PSK for a Captive Portal WM-AD
1 In the WM Access Domain Configuration screen, click on the Privacy tab. The Privacy screen appears
for the highlighted WM-AD.
2 To configure privacy by WPA-PSK, click on the WPA-PSK radio button.
3 Type in the Pre-Shared Key (PSK), or shared secret, to be used between the wireless device and
Altitude AP. The key should be between 8 and 63 characters. It is used to generate the 256-bit key.
4 To display the Pre-Shared Key (in order to proofread your entry before saving the configuration),
click on the Unmask button. To mask the key again, click on the button again (the button toggles
between Mask and Unmask).
5 To enable re-keying after a time interval, click the Broadcast re-key interval checkbox on (the default
is on). Type in the re-key time interval (the time after which the broadcast encryption key is changed
automatically) in seconds.
If the box is unchecked, the Broadcast encryption key is never changed and the Altitude AP will
always use the same broadcast key for Broadcast/Multicast transmissions. Note that this reduces the
level of security for wireless communications.
6 To save the privacy parameters for the new WM-AD, click on the Save button.
