WPA2-PSK and WPA2-PSK / WPA-PSK
WPA with a pre-shared key (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 (
), encryp-
tion keys are automatically generated with the pre-shared key, automatically changed
("rekeying") and authenticated between the devices.
The standard of encryption available to you depends on the components in the wireless
network. Every PC (network adapter) that requires access to a WPA-protected wireless
network must also support WPA. To find out whether and how you can use WPA on your
PC, read your network adapter's user guide. If all components support WPA2, select
WPA2-PSK
. If you are using network adapters that only support WPA, select
WPA-PSK
.
Select
WPA2-PSK / WPA-PSK
if both methods are used in your network. Your device
then automatically defines the best possible way to protect your data for each client.
The entries described below are identical for both options.
ì
Select the required option in the
Security
field.
Note:
This screen allows you to display the pre-shared key. You can change the encryption
here. In this case, you also have to configure all wireless network adapters manually
or perform WPS registration once again.
