Understanding Wireless Security

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server, the
client is allowed to join the network. If not, the client stays blocked
from joining the LAN. Once the client joins the network, the
authentication server distributes a TKIP encryption key to both
the client and the Access Point. The client can then begin
communicating on the network and maintain the connection,
encrypting data back and forth with the Access Point. Note that
for environments without a Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service (RADIUS) infrastructure, WPA supports the use of a
pre-shared key (PSK). WPA-PSK specifies that encryption keys
be dynamically changed (called rekeying) and authenticated
between devices after a specified period of time, or after a
specified number of packets has been transferred.
If you are transferring private information over this wireless
connection, it is recommended to enable WEP or WPA for your
EZ Connect™ g Wireless Ethernet Bridge.
