Security Recommendations While Deploying Zebra Clients in 6GHz Network
Security Recommendations While Deploying Zebra Clients in 6GHz Network
This section details the various security combinations used in a 6GHz network that are supported by Zebra.
6GHz does not allow open security and WPA2 security combinations. To provide more robust security, 6GHz enforces the use of WPA3 Enterprise, WPA3 Personal, and Enhanced Open security combinations, but does not support backward compatibility for legacy clients. WPA3 Personal is mandatory to be supported by clients operating in a 6GHz network, while Enhanced Open and WPA3 enterprise support is optional.
WPA3 default uses PMF (802.11w) and it is a mandatory requirement for both client and APs, which helps to prevent deauthentication attacks. Zebra Clients supports all three security combinations; WPA3 Enterprise, WPA3 Personal and Enhanced Open, which are described in more detail in this guide.
