Configuring the 802.1x Wireless Access Point (Windows CE 5.0)

After typing the IP address for your 802.1x access point in the Web browser address bar, the configuration page appears in the Web browser window. You are now ready to configure your access point.

Microsoft used a Cisco** access point for this test scenario. The procedures in this document refer to Cisco-based hardware and software. If you use a different access point to set up your 802.1x network, refer to the product-specific documentation.

When configuring your access points use the following Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs):

To configure your wireless access point
