– WPA/WPA2-Auto (RADIUS)
Setting with which an access point can process both the "WPA (RADIUS)" and the
"WPA2 (RADIUS)" type of authentication. This is necessary when the access point
communicates with different clients, some using "WPA (RADIUS)" and others "WPA2
(RADIUS)". The same encryption method is used on the clients
● Cipher
Select the encryption method.
– AUTO
Either AES or TKIP is automatically selected, depending on the capability of the other
station.
– WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
A symmetrical stream encryption method with only 40-bit or 104-bit keys based on the
RC4 (Ron’s Code 4) algorithm.
– TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
A symmetrical stream encryption method with the RC4 (Ron’s Code 4) algorithm. In
contrast to the weak WEP encryption, TKIP uses changing keys derived from a main key.
TKIP can also recognize corrupted data frames.
– AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
Strong symmetrical block encryption method based on the Rijndael algorithm that further
improves the functions of TKIP.
Note
To provide better protection of your data against attacks, use WPA2/ WPA2-PSK with
AES.
● WPA(2) Pass Phrase
Enter a WPA(2) key here. This WPA(2) key must be known on both the client and the access
point and is entered by the user at both ends.
– For a key with 8 to 63 characters, you can only use the following readable ASCII
characters: 0x20 - 0x7e.
– For a key with precisely 64 characters, you can use the following ASCII characters: 0 -
9, a - f and A - F.
● WPA(2) Pass Phrase Confirmation
Confirm the entered WPA(2) pass phrase.

On this Basic Wizard page, you configure the user name and the password with which the client
will be logged on with the RADIUS server.
