Logging Into And Exiting A Privilege Level; Protecting The Wireless Lan; Using Vlans - Cisco C3201FESMIC-TP= - 3201 Fast EN Switch Mobile Interface Card Expansion Module Software Configuration Manual

Administering the WMIC
This example shows how to set the configure command to privilege level 14 and define SecretPswd14
as the password that users must enter to use level 14 commands:
bridge(config)# privilege exec level 14 configure
bridge(config)# enable password level 14 SecretPswd14

Logging Into and Exiting a Privilege Level

To log in to a specified privilege level and to exit to a specified privilege level, follow these steps, beginning
in privileged EXEC mode:
Command
Step 1
enable level
Step 2 disable level

Protecting the Wireless LAN

Configure security settings to prevent unauthorized access to your network. Because it is a radio device,
the WMIC can communicate beyond the physical boundaries of your building. You can apply advanced
security features such as the following:
•
•
•

Using VLANs

Assign SSIDs to the VLANs on the wireless LAN. If you do not use VLANs on the wireless LAN, the
security options that can be assigned to SSIDs are limited, because encryption settings and
authentication types are linked. Without VLANs, encryption settings (WEP and ciphers) are applied to
an interface, and no more than one encryption setting can be used on each interface.
For example, if an SSID with static WEP is created with VLANs disabled, an additional SSID with Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA) authentication cannot be created because of the different encryption settings.
If a security setting for an SSID conflicts with another SSID, delete one or more SSIDs to eliminate the
conflict.
