Shared
: Shared key
is when both the sender and the recipient share a
secret key.
•
LEAP:
Light Extensible Authentication Protocol. It is an EAP
authentication type used primarily in Cisco Aironet WLANs. It
encrypts data transmissions using dynamically generated WEP keys,
and supports mutual authentication (only with CCX mode enabled.)
•
WPA/ WPA-PSK/ WPA2/ WPA2-PSK:
WPA or WPA-PSK
authentications offer two encryption methods, TKIP and AES. For
WPA-PSK, 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 key 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 four formats to enter the keys.
•
ASCII (64 bits)
: 5 ASCII characters (case sensitivity).
•
ASCII (128 bits)
: 13 ASCII characters (case sensitivity).
•
Hexadecimal (64 bits)
: 10 Hex characters (0~9, a~f).
•
Hexadecimal (128 bits)
: 26 Hex characters (0~9, a~f).
Show Password
: Check this box to show the passwords that have been
entered.
802.1x Setting
: When users use radius server to authenticate client
certificate for WPA authentication mode (WPA authentication do not
support EAP Method- MD5-Challenge).
