2.4.3.4 WPA Pre-shared key
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use
a pre-shared key to authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during
communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to change the encryption key
frequently. So the encryption key will not be known by hackers easily, and this
will improve security.
Parameters
Description
WPA(TKIP)
TKIP will change the encryption key frequently to enhance
the wireless LAN security.
WPA2(AES)
WPA2 AES uses CCMP protocol to change encryption key
frequently. AES can provide high level encryption to enhance
the wireless LAN security.
WPA2 Mixed
WPA2 Mixed will use TKIP or AES based on the other
communication peer automatically.
Pre-shared
Key Format
You may select Passphrase (alphanumeric format) or
Hexadecimal Digits (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9” range) to be
