7. From the Authentication menu, select one of the following authentication types for
the WiFi network, and, if applicable, set a new passphrase (network key or WiFi
password) for the WiFi network:
•
Open: Clients are not authenticated, traffic is not encrypted, and 802.11w (PMF)
is automatically disabled. This setting does not provide any security and is not
appropriate for most situations.
If you select Open from the menu, the Enhanced Open check box displays and
the Allow Devices to Connect with Open check box
can
display:
-
Enhanced Open: If you select the Enhanced Open check box, the WiFi
enhanced open feature is enabled. This feature is based on opportunistic
wireless encryption (OWE). The encryption is set to CCM mode protocol
(CCMP) and 802.11w (PMF) is automatically set to mandatory.
-
Allow Clients to Authenticate using Legacy Open (OWE Transition Mode):
If you select the Enhanced Open check box, the Allow Clients to
Authenticate using Legacy Open (OWE Transition Mode) check box
displays. If you select this check box, the WiFi network can accept both clients
that support the WiFi enhanced open feature and clients that do not. For
clients that do not support the WiFi open enhanced feature, traffic is not
encrypted. If you do not select this check box, the WiFi network can only
accept clients that support the WiFi enhanced open feature.
•
WPA2 Personal: This option allows only WiFi clients that support WPA2 to
connect to the SSID. Select this option if all WiFi clients are capable of supporting
WPA2. This option uses AES encryption. In the Passphrase field, enter a new
passphrase for the WiFi network.
•
WPA2/WPA Personal: This option allows both WPA and WPA2 WiFi clients to
connect to the SSID. This option uses TKIP and AES encryption. Broadcast packets
use TKIP. For unicast (that is, point-to-point) transmissions, WPA clients use TKIP
and WPA2 clients use AES. In the Passphrase field, enter a new passphrase for
the WiFi network.
