WPA, continued
Parameter Description
Network Authentication Open – No authentication is needed.
Shared – Only wireless stations using a shared key
(WEP Key identified) are allowed to connect to
each other.
WPA – This mode is for enterprise users with an
authentication server (Radius Server), WPA-enabled
access point, and a WPA-enabled client. Once WPA
is enabled, all clients and access points on the
network must be WPA-enabled in order to access
the network.
WPA-PSK – This is a special mode designed for
home and small business users who do not have
access to network authentication servers. In this
mode, known as Pre-Shared Key, the user manually
enters the starting password in their access point or
gateway, as well as in each PC on the wireless
network. WPA takes over automatically from that
point, keeping unauthorized users that don't have
the matching password from joining the network,
while encrypting the data traveling between
authorized devices.
Data Encryption WEP – In WPA or WPA-PSK mode, WEP is also able
to be the encryption method for the transmission
data.
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a
packet is a kind of message transmitted over a
network.) This insures much greater security than
the standard WEP security.
AES – AES has been developed to ensure the
highest degree of security and authenticity for
digital information. It is the most advanced
solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for security in
the wireless network.
Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption method to ensure
communication.
