 Hello and welcome to this video titled
 configuring WPA2 with pre-shared

0:00:07.500000 --> 0:00:11.540000
 key. In this case we're going to do
 it on a wireless LAN controller.

0:00:11.540000 --> 0:00:13.580000
 So that is the topic
 for this video.

0:00:13.580000 --> 0:00:16.660000
 So let's just go through the five or
 six steps necessary to accomplish

0:00:16.660000 --> 0:00:22.740000
 this. Step number one, your wireless
 LAN controller most likely has some

0:00:22.740000 --> 0:00:25.160000
 sort of web based GUI that
 you can use to manage it.

0:00:25.160000 --> 0:00:29.600000
 So that would be your first step is logging
 into the GUI of that controller.

0:00:29.600000 --> 0:00:36.100000
 Step number two, we're assuming that
 we're doing this on a pre-existing

0:00:36.100000 --> 0:00:38.980000
 wireless LAN, a pre-existing SSID.


0:00:38.980000 --> 0:00:42.960000
 So once you log into the controller
 it might start by defaulting as some

0:00:42.960000 --> 0:00:44.640000
 sort of monitoring page.

0:00:44.640000 --> 0:00:47.320000
 So you're going to want to find some
 sort of setting or something that

0:00:47.320000 --> 0:00:50.760000
 will allow you to go to the configuration
 section of that controller so

0:00:50.760000 --> 0:00:54.180000
 you can start configuring and editing
 and modifying what you currently

0:00:54.180000 --> 0:00:57.720000
 have. In this case we will click on the
 advanced button for this particular

0:00:57.720000 --> 0:01:04.500000
 controller. Now once you're in the
 configuration section you're going

0:01:04.500000 --> 0:01:08.900000
 to locate the link or tab or button
 that will allow you to view all of

0:01:08.900000 --> 0:01:10.920000
 your configured wireless LANs.

0:01:10.920000 --> 0:01:13.840000
 In this case that would be the wireless
 LAN tab that we see up here at

0:01:13.840000 --> 0:01:19.800000
 the top. From here you should be able
 to locate or identify the wireless

0:01:19.800000 --> 0:01:24.600000
 LAN that you want to change or
 add WPA2 pre-share key to.

0:01:24.600000 --> 0:01:27.580000
 So in this case we're going to do it
 for the corporate buildings wireless

0:01:27.580000 --> 0:01:31.780000
 LAN. We click on number two.

0:01:31.780000 --> 0:01:36.680000
 All right so once we're in that SSID
 or that wireless LAN there should

0:01:36.680000 --> 0:01:41.280000
 be some way to change this to the security
 or encryption settings of that

0:01:41.280000 --> 0:01:45.360000
 wireless LAN. Here it's pretty clear
 this is the security tab so we would

0:01:45.360000 --> 0:01:52.440000
 select that. Now for our layer two security
 we're going to want to select

0:01:52.440000 --> 0:01:58.840000
 WPA2. In this case in this particular
 controller it's bundling WPA and

0:01:58.840000 --> 0:02:04.500000
 WPA2 together. If your particular GUI
 gives you a choice of just WPA or

0:02:04.500000 --> 0:02:13.320000
 WPA2 select WPA2.

0:02:13.320000 --> 0:02:17.600000
 And ensure that WPA2 is
 using AES encryption.

0:02:17.600000 --> 0:02:20.380000
 Sometimes that's the default,
 sometimes that's not.

0:02:20.380000 --> 0:02:23.020000
 So make sure that's the encryption
 type so we can see here down at the

0:02:23.020000 --> 0:02:30.020000
 very bottom of the screenshot that
 shows that we have selected AES as

0:02:30.020000 --> 0:02:36.580000
 our encryption method.

0:02:36.580000 --> 0:02:40.300000
 Now as far as the key management's concerned
 we're going to want to select

0:02:40.300000 --> 0:02:45.280000
 pre-shared key. So you can see here
 the first red box shows us a button

0:02:45.280000 --> 0:02:49.760000
 we can select for pre-shared key and then
 we have to type in our pre-shared

0:02:49.760000 --> 0:02:52.600000
 key, our password which
 we would do right here.

0:02:52.600000 --> 0:02:54.260000
 At this point you're finished.

0:02:54.260000 --> 0:03:00.060000
 You just want to locate the OK or Apply
 or Save button to save this and

0:03:00.060000 --> 0:03:04.280000
 now your wireless LAN should have WPA2
 with pre-shared key configured

0:03:04.280000 --> 0:03:06.880000
 and ready to go.

0:03:06.880000 --> 0:03:08.760000
 So that concludes this video.

0:03:08.760000 --> 0:03:09.460000
 Thank you for watching.
