WPA2/WPA with pre-shared key (PSK)
WPA
is a more advanced procedure than WEP for protecting wireless networks. Dynamic
keys, based on TKIP (Temporal Key Integration Protocol) offer increased security. The
new standard WPA2 uses AES for the encryption.
WPA-PSK
is a special WPA mode for private users and users in small companies without
their own authentication server. After a certain period of time (
Rekey interval
), encryp-
tion keys are automatically generated with the pre-shared key, automatically changed
("rekeying") and authenticated between the devices.
