Description
WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i
standard. Key differences between WPA and WEP are user
authentication and improved data encryption
WPA-PSK
If you don't have an external RADIUS server you should use
WPA-PSK (WPA Pre-Shared Key) that only requires a single
(identical) password entered into wireless gateway and wireless
client. As long as the passwords match, a client will be granted
access to a WLAN.
WPA2
Advanced protocol, certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2
program, implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In
particular, it introduces a new AES-based algorithm, CCMP, that
is considered fully secure.
WPA2-PSK
If you don't have an external RADIUS server you should use
WPA2-PSK (WPA Pre-Shared Key) that only requires a single
(identical) password entered into wireless gateway and wireless
client. As long as the passwords match, a client will be granted
access to a WLAN.
WPA/WPA2 Encryption
Switch to enable and disable WPA/WPA2 encryption.
WPA Pre-Shared Key
The encryption mechanisms used for WPA and WPA-PSK are
the same. The only difference between the two is that WPA-PSK
uses a simple common password, instead of user-specific
credentials.
RADIUS Server
Input the IP address of RADIUS server
RADIUS Port
Enter RADIUS port number when WPA or 802. 1x network
authentication is selected.
RADIUS Key
Enter RADIUS Key when WPA or 802. 1x network
authentication is selected.
Group Key Rotation
Interval
Allows the wireless router to generate best possible random
group key and update all the key-management capable stations
periodically.
WPA/WPA2 Re-auth
Interval
Wireless router (if using WPA-PSK key management) or
RADIUS server (if using WPA key management) sends a new
group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA
equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and
