Description

Reference

Global WLAN Passphrase Complexity and Enhanced Security

New: WLAN passphrase complexity and enhanced security settings enforce PSK strength requirements and disable insecure WLAN encryption methods across all WLANs on the controller.

WLAN Encryption Options
Over-the-DS FT Support

New: Enables Fast BSS Transition pre‑authentication over the wired distribution system, reducing roaming latency versus over‑the‑air exchanges.

WLAN Encryption Options
NAS IP

New: Specifies the NAS IP address that SmartZone uses when proxying authentication and accounting requests to the AAA server, presenting a controller‑based NAS identity instead of the AP IP address.

RADIUS Options
Dynamic PSK3

New: Dynamic PSK3 (DPSK3) provides WPA2/WPA3 transition-based dynamic credentials, enabling secure access using WPA3-SAE while allowing onboarding and connectivity for legacy WPA2 clients.

Dynamic PSK3
SSID Name Change

Updated: For DPSK-enabled WLANs configured with WPA2, WPA2/WPA3-mixed, or WPA-mixed encryption options, the SSID field is greyed out and cannot be modified.

Creating a WLAN Configuration
Terminology

Updated: Replaced Whitelist and Blacklist with Allowlist and Blocklist to align with the user interface terminology.
