Data Encryption
TKIP
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the standard encryption method
used with WPA. You can also use TKIP with WPA2.
AES
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the standard encryption method used
with WPA2.
TKIP + AES TKIP + AES supports both WPA and WPA2. Broadcast packets use TKIP. For
unicast (point-to-point) transmissions, WPA clients use TKIP, and WPA2
clients use AES.
For the WPA & WPA2 mixed mode, TKIP + AES is the only supported data
encryption method.
Passphrase
Enter a passphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between 8 and 63 characters
(inclusive). The default passphrase is sharedsecret.
You can display the actual passphrase by selecting the Show Passphrase in Clear Text

Wireless Configuration and Security

ProSAFE Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point with RFID Support, WNDAP380R
Configure RADIUS Server Settings
For authentication, accounting, or both authentication and accounting using RADIUS, you
need to configure primary servers and optional secondary servers. These RADIUS server
settings can apply to all devices that are connected to the wireless access point.
To configure the RADIUS server settings:
1.
Select
Configuration > Security > Advanced > Radius Server Settings
.
The Radius Server Settings screen displays.
Note:
TKIP provides only legacy (slower) rates of operation. If you want to
use the 11n rates and speed, NETGEAR recommends WPA2 authentication
with AES encryption.
Note:
Although some wireless clients might support AES with WPA, the
WNDAP380R wireless access point does not support WPA with AES.
