wireless adapter will need to be set to the same authentication type.
•
Shared
: Shared key
is when both the sender and the recipient share a
secret key.
•
WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK
,
WPA-PSK/WPA2-
PSK, and WPA1/WPA2
:
WPA-PSK offers two encryption methods,
TKIP and AES. Select the type of algorithm, TKIP or AES and then enter
a WPA Shared Key of 8~64 characters in the WPA Pre-shared Key
field.
Encryption
Type: For
Open
and
Shared
authentication mode, the
selection of encryption type are
None
and
WEP
. For
WPA, WPA2,
WPA-PSK
and
WPA2-PSK
authentication mode, the encryption
type supports both
TKIP
and
AES
.
WPA Pre-shared Key
: This is the shared secret between AP and
STA. For WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication mode, this field
must be filled with character longer than 8 and less than 64 lengths.
WEP Key
: Only valid when using WEP encryption algorithm. The
key must match with the AP’s key. There are several formats to enter
the keys.
•
Hexadecimal (128bits): 26 Hex characters (0~9, a~f).
•
ASCII (128bits): 13 ASCII characters.
WPA Algorithms
Select TKIP, AES or TKIP/AES for the WPA Algorithms.
Enable Pre-
Authentication
The two most important features beyond WPA to become
standardized through 802.11i/WPA2 are: pre-authentication, which
enables secure fast roaming without noticeable signal latency.
RADIUS Server
RADIUS is an authentication, authorization and accounting client-
server protocol. The client is a Network Access Server that desires to
authenticate its links. The server is a server that has access to a user
database with authentication information.
IP Address
Enter the RADIUS Server’s IP Address provided by your ISP.
Port
Enter the RADIUS Server’s port number provided by your ISP. The
default is
1812
.
Shared Secret
Enter the password that the router shares with the RADIUS Server.
Session Timeout
Enter the number of seconds that will elapse before the group key
change automatically.
Idle Timeout
It represents that the router will idle after few seconds. The time must
be set between 60~3600 seconds.
