Setting WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)
Like WPA security, WPA2 is available in both WPA2-Personal (PSK) mode
and WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS) mode. Typically, WPA2-Personal (PSK) is
the mode that will be used in a home environment, while WPA2-Enterprise
(RADIUS) is implemented in a business environment where an external
radius server distributes the network key to the clients automatically. This
guide will focus on WPA2-Personal (PSK) usage. Please refer to the User
Manual for more information about wireless security and different types of
wireless security.
1.
After you’ve set up your N1 Vision, go to the “Security” page under
“Wireless” and select “WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)” from the “Security
Mode” drop-down menu.
2. For “Authentication”, select “WPA-PSK”, “WPA2-PSK”, or “WPA-PSK +
WPA2-PSK”. This setting will have to be identical on the wireless clients
that you set up. “WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK” mode will allow the N1 Vision
to support clients running either WPA or WPA2 security.
3. Enter your pre-shared key (PSK). This can be from eight to 63
characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key
must be used on all of the wireless clients that you set up. For example,
your PSK might be something like: “Smith family network key”. Click
“Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all wireless clients to
match these settings.
