- Open : Open-system authentication accepts any client attempting to connect the
wireless AP/Router without verifying its identity. In this mode the default
encryption type is "None."
- Shared : The shared-key approach uses Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) to
verify client identity by distributing a shared key to clients before attempting
authentication.
- WEP Auto : Allows WLAN clients to associate using Open-WEP (uses WEP for
encryption only) or Shared-WEP (uses WEP for authentication and encryption).
If enabled, you must configure at least one key for the VAP interface and all its
clients. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) provides a basic level of security,
preventing unauthorized access to the network and encrypting data
transmitted between wireless clients and the wireless AP/Router. WEP uses
static shared keys (fixed-length hexadecimal or alphanumeric strings) that are
manually distributed to all clients that want to use the network.
