“Encryption” is choose to either None or WEP. If the “Encryption” is WEP, you
need to further select the WEP key length to be either WEP 64bits or WEP
128bits.
WPA Authentication
Mode
There are 2 types of authentication mode for WPA.
WPA-RADIUS: WPA RADIUS uses an external RADIUS server to perform user
authentication. To use WPA RADIUS, enter the IP address of the RADIUS server,
he RADIUS port (default is 1812) and the shared secret from the RADIUS server.
Please refer to “Authentication RADIUS Server” setting below for RADIUS setting.
The WPA algorithm is selected between TKIP and AES, please refer to “WPA
cipher Suite” below.
Pre-Shared Key: Pre-Shared Key authentication is based on a shared secret that
is known only by the parties involved. To use WPA Pre-Shared Key, select key
format and enter a password in the “Pre-Shared Key Format” and “Pre-Shared
Key” setting respectively. Please refer to “Pre-Shared Key Format” and
“Pre-Shared Key” setting below.
Pre-Shared Key

hexadecimal secret.
Pre-Shared Key

Format” is specified as PassPhrase, then it indicates a passphrase of 8 to 63

indicates a 64-hexadecimal number.
