When to Use WPA-PSK
Wi-Fi Protected Access
(
WPA
) with
Pre-Shared Key
(
PSK
) is a Wi-Fi Alliance subset
of IEEE
802.11i
, which includes
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(
TKIP
)
Advanced
Encryption Algorithm
(
AES
), and
Counter mode/CBC-MAC Protocol
(CCMP)
mechanisms. This mode offers the same encryption algorithms as WPA with RADIUS
but without the ability to integrate a RADIUS server for user authentication.
WPA-PSK provides
dynamically-generated
keys that are periodically
refreshed.
There are different
Unicast
keys for
each station.

Te m p o ra l Key I n t e gr i t y
Protocol
(
TKIP
)
•
Counter mode/CBC-MAC
Protocol
(
CCMP
)
Advanced
Encryption Standard
(
AES
)
The use of a Pre-Shared (
PSK
)
key provides user authentication
similar to that of shared keys in
WEP
.
Key Management
Encryption Algorithm
User Authentication
If there are older client stations on your network that do not support WPA, you can configure
WPA with RADIUS (with Both, CCMP, or TKIP) and check the “Allow non-WPA IEEE 802.1x
clients” checkbox to allow non-WPA clients. This way, you get the benefit of IEEE 802.1x
key management for non-WPA clients along with even better data protection of TKIP and
CCMP (AES) key management and encryption algorithms for your WPA clients.
A typical scenario is that one is upgrading a current 802.1x network to use WPA. You might
have a mix of clients; some new clients that support WPA and some older ones that do
not support WPA. You might even have other access points on the network that support
only 802.1x and some that support WPA with RADIUS. For as long as this mix persists,
use the “Allow non-WPA IEEE 802.1x clients” option.
When all the stations have been upgraded to use WPA, you should disable the “Allow
non-WPA IEEE 802.1x clients” option.
