CAUTION

Only a qualified wireless network administrator should set the access

point radio configuration. Refer to the Brocade Mobility 7131 Series

Access Point Product Reference Guide for an understanding of the

configurable values involved and their implications.

NOTE

Even an access point configured with minimal values must protect its data

against theft and corruption. A security policy should be configured for WLAN1

as part of the basic configuration outlined in this guide. A security policy can be

configured for the WLAN from within the Quick Setup screen. Policies can be

defined over time and saved to be used as needed as the access point’s

security requirements change. Brocade recommends you familiarize yourself

with the security options available on the access point before defining a

security policy.

9. Click Apply to save any changes to the Quick Setup screen. Navigating away

from the screen without clicking Apply results in all changes to the screens

being lost, unless you use the Un-applied Changes pop-up window to overwrite

the current settings.

10. Click Undo Changes (if necessary) to undo any changes made. Undo Changes

reverts the settings displayed on the Quick Setup screen to the last saved

configuration.

Configuring basic security

For testing basic connectivity, there is no reason to configure a server supported

authentication scheme. WPA2/CCMP is described in this guide as a basic security

scheme sufficient to protect the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point’s initial

transmissions. For details on configuring other authentication and encryption

options available to the access point, refer to the Brocade Mobility 7131 Series

Access Point Product Reference Guide.
