4.2 Security
This module provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE
802.11x, and can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your
wireless stations use the same security function and are setup with the same security key.
Figure 4.2.1
No encryption
When you choose to disable encryption, this will create an open network. It is commonly
used in guest networks.
WEP
When you select a 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to encrypt data.
You can generate the key by yourself and enter it. You can enter four WEP keys and select
one of them as a default key. Then the router can receive any packets encrypted by one of
the four keys.
•
Input Type: you may select ASCII characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal
digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
•
Key length: you can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit. The
larger the key will be, the higher level of security is used, but the throughput will be
lower.
•
Key1 - Key4: the WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless network.
Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device. 64-bit WEP: input 10-digits
Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5-digit ASCII character as the
encryption keys. 128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "09"
range) or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
