Authentication ensures only known and trusted users or devices access an access point managed WLAN. Authentication is
enabled per WLAN to verify the identity of both users and devices. Authentication is a challenge and response procedure for
validating user credentials such as user name, password and secret-key information.
A client must authenticate to an access point to receive resources from the network. 802.1x EAP, 802.1x EAP-PSK, MAC and
PSK/None authentication options are supported.
