Authentication Type:
Defines the configuration options for wireless network sharing, in order to verify the identity and
access privileges of wireless network cards. This consists of validating a user or system, prior to
communication. It is possible to choose between
Open system
,
Shared key
and
Auto
.
Open system
: Open system identification is the simplest of the identification algorithms
available. It is an algorithm which requires no verification. Any station requiring
identification with this algorithm will be identified if the receiver station’s identification type
is set to receive open system identification. This identification method allows all wireless
devices to communicate with each other.

Shared key
: Identification is made using the WEP network key to identify the remote
wireless device. If the remote device uses an incorrect key, or no key, the user is refused
access. Shared key identification prevents unauthorised devices from connecting to your
equipment.
