Popular password: The item is the initial setting key for WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK . It’s required to be 8–63
ASCII characters or 8–64 hexadecimal characters .
The Private Key Renewal Interval: The item is used to set the renewal period of broadcast and multicast
key . The unit is second and the minimum is 30 . If the value is zero, it means no renewal .
3.2.3 WPA/WPA2
The WPA/WPA2 is a stronger encryption algorithm than WEP . When the security type is selected, the
gateway will use a Radius server for ID authentication and to obtain the WPA or WPA2 safe mode of
key . It’s expensive to install a dedicated authentication server and the maintenance is rather complex,
therefore we do not recommend to use the security type for common users . See the below figure for
the specific setting options .
WPA/WPA2 safe mode includes WPA, WPA2, and WPA/WPA2 .
WPA/WPA2: If selected, the router will automatically select WPA or WPA2 safe mode according to the
request of base unit .
WPA: If selected, the router will use WPA safe mode .
WPA2: If selected, the router will use WPA2 safe mode .
WPA algorithm: The item is used to select the safe algorithm for encrypting the wireless data, the
options are TKIP, AES, and TKIP/AES . The 802 .11N mode does not support TKIP algorithm, so the
gateway might operate in a low transmission rate . It’s recommended to use AES encryption .
The Private Key Renewal Interval: The item is used to set the renewal period of broadcast and multicast
key . The unit is second and the minimum is 30 . If the value is zero, it means no renewal .
IP address of Radius server: The Radius server is used to authenticate the identification of base unit
within the wireless network . The item is used to set IP address of Radius server .
Radius port: The Radius server is used to authenticate the identification of base unit within the wireless
network . The item is used to set Port # for Radius authentication service .
Radius shared key: The item is used to set the password for access to Radius service .
