Security
This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, include WEP,
IEEE 802.11x, IEEE 802.11x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with
RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from
illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use the same security function.
Note: This access point can act as station and AP at the same time in “Universal
Repeater mode”. The security settings only apply to AP function in “Universal
Repeater mode”. The station function of “Universal Repeater mode” does not have
security feature.
WEP only
When you select 64-bit or128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to encrypt
data. You can generate the key by yourself and enter it. You can enter four WEP keys
and select one of them as default key. Then the access point can receive any packets
encrypted by one of the four keys. You can use WEP encryption in “AP mode”,
“Station-Ad Hoc mode”, “Station-Infrastructure mode”, “AP Bridge-WDS mode”
and “Universal Repeater mode”.
