Chapter 4 Using Advanced Setup
Security
There are four wireless security options: Off,
WEP, WEP+802.1
x, and
WPA
. The lat-
ter three options are different types of wireless security.
Off
Selecting
Off
disables wireless security. Selecting this option allows any computer
with wireless capability and the correct
ESSID
value to join the wireless network.
WEP
Selecting the security option “
WEP
” and clicking Next in the Wireless Settings
screen generates the “
WEP
Key” screen. Here, the authentication type, encryp-
tion level, and
WEP
keys are entered to activate
WEP
( W ired E quivalent P rivacy)
security encryption for the wireless network.
Authentication Type -
There are three authentication types: Open, Shared, and
Both. Open authentication allows any wireless-enabled device to recognize the
Router, if the correct
WEP
key is enabled on the device. Shared allows only wire-
less-enabled devices with the correct
WEP
key and Shared key to recognize the
Router. Selecting Both enables both Open and Shared authentication types.
64-bit
WEP
-
64
-bit
WEP
requires four separate keys. Each key comprises five hexa-
decimal digit pairs. A hexadecimal digit consists of an alphanumeric character
ranging from
0-9
or
A-F
. An example of a
64
-bit
WEP
key is:
4E-A3-3D-68-72
. To
create a set of
64
-bit
WEP
keys, activate all four keys by clicking in the appropri-
ate circles, then enter five hexadecimal digit pairs in each Key text box ( Key 1- ,
Key 2- , Key 3- , Key 4- ). After activating
64
-bit
WEP
on the Router, a computer
with wireless capability can join the network only if these same keys are entered
in the computer’s wireless encryption scheme.
