WPA-PSK (Pre Shared Key) is designed for home network or SOHO environments. It
provides strong authentication and encryption functions to protect your wireless
network against intrusion.
With WPA-PSK Network Authentication, there is a shared key between the client
adapter and the Access Point. When
WPA-PSK
is selected, you should choose
TKIP
for data encryption. A combination of
WPA-PSK
and
TKIP
provides the best security
protection for your wireless network. This combination uses a passphrase (or a
shared secret) that must be set in the Access Point and your adapter.
Note:
WPA is designed for the enterprise or for the network environ-
ment with a RADIUS (or a centralized) server. If your network environ-
ment uses a RADIUS server, contact your network administrator for
detailed instructions on how to set up WPA authentication and Encryp-
tion.
