4.3.6.1 WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is based on the IEEE 802.11 standard and uses the RC4
encryption algorithm. Enabling WEP allows you to increase security by encryption data
being transferred over your wireless network. WEP is the oldest security algorithm, and
there are few applications that can decrypt the WEP key in less than 10 minutes.
Key Length:
64-bit/128-bit, by default it is 64-bit.
64-bit
—For 64 bits WEP key, either 5 ASCII characters, such as 12345 (or 10
hexadecimal digitals leading by 0x, such as 0x414234445.)
128-bit
—For 128 bits WEP key, either 13 ASCII characters, such as
ABCDEFGHIJKLM (or 26 hexadecimal digits leading by 0x, such as
0x4142434445464748494A4B4C4D).
Key Format:
If you choose 64 bit, there will be two Key Formats selectable: ASCII (5
characters) and Hex (10 characters). If 128-bit, the Key Formats should comply with ASCII
(13 characters) or Hex (26 characters)
Key Setting:
Please refer to Key Length to set this parameter.
4.3.6.2 WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the most dominating security mechanism in industry. It is
separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK),
and WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x.
TKIP
--Temporal Key Integrity Protocol is one cipher for data encryption supported by WPA.
4.3.6.3 WPA2
WPA2 means Wi-Fi Protected Access 2, it is the current most secure method of wireless
security and required for 802.11n performance.
AES--
Advanced Encryption Standard is another cipher for data encryption supported by
WPA.
Pre-Shared Key Format/Pre-Shared Key:
This is a pre-defined key used for encryption
