4.2.1.6 Security
Setting
Operation Mode -> Setup -> Security Settings
Security settings allow you to use encryption to secure your data from eavesdropping. You
can select different security policy to provide association authentication and/or data
encryption. The AirMax5X features various security policies including WEP, 802.1x,
WPA-RADIUS, WPA-PSK, WPA2-RADIUS, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK. Please note not
all security policies are available in all operation modes. All wireless devices on the same
network must use the same security policy. We recommend using WPA-PSK or
WPA2-PSK whenever possible. For WDS Bridge, we recommend using AES encryption.
WEP
WEP Encryption is the oldest and most available encryption method. However, it is also the
least secure.
Select one of the WEP key for wireless network:
There are total of 4 possible keys
for WEP encryption. You need to choose which key will be used for encryption.
All
wireless devices on the same network have to use the same settings. We recommend
using WEP Key 1 as in default setting.
