Encryption Tab
Use the Encryption tab for configuring encryption settings. The absence of a physical
connection makes wireless links vulnerable to information theft. Encryption is an efficient
method of preventing data theft and improving data security. The firmware supports Open
System and Shared Key (40-bit) Encryption algorithms.

Field Description
MicroAP
Authentication
Options A MicroAP can use Open System Algorithm, Shared Key Algorithm or both.
If Shared Key is enabled and Open System is not, the MicroAP grants access
to adapters that have Shared Key enabled and are using the correct
Encryption Key algorithm.
Adapters using Open System cannot associate to the MicroAP when the
MicroAP has Shared Key enabled. Only when the MicroAP is using Open
System can Open System terminals associate to it.
Encryption Algorithm Use the Encryption Algorithm drop-down list to select the adapter Encryption
algorithm. The Open System algorithm (default setting) does not encrypt
packets over the network. Select Open System to disable Encryption for the
WLAN adapter and allow for the transmission and receipt of data with no
security.
