requires a RADIUS server in order to implement. The Wi-Fi Alliance will call this, WPA-Enterprise. One
variation of WPA is called WPA Pre Shared Key or WPA-PSK for short - this provides an
authentication alternative to an expensive RADIUS server. WPA-PSK is a simplified but still powerful
form of WPA most suitable for home Wi-Fi networking. To use WPA-PSK, a person sets a static key or
"passphrase" as with WEP. But, using TKIP, WPA-PSK automatically changes the keys at a preset
time interval, making it much more difficult for hackers to find and exploit them. The Wi-Fi Alliance will
call this, WPA-Personal.
