WPA-PSK:
Allows you to gain access to a secured wireless network that the station and the access
point use the same pre-shared key to authenticate. You must type a mixture of numbers and letters
in the
Pre-shared key [WPA]
section of this menu. You may input either 8-63 ASCII characters or
64 HEX characters. Pre-shared key is usually used for SOHO authentication.
WPA:
Allows you to gain access to a more secured wireless network that requires mutual
authentication between client and access point with a Radius authentication server. This product
supports various EAP types (TLS and PEAP), which require different credential authentication. In
order to access the wireless network, you must select EAP type your service provider supplied in
the section of
IEEE802.11X Authentication
.
WPA consists of methods to strengthen data encryption (Wired Equivalent Privacy [WEP],
Temporal key integrity Protocol [TKIP], Advanced Encryption Standard [AES]) and to provide user
authentication (strong EAP type such as TLS, PEAP, LEAP).
Once you choose your Authentication Mode, you then need to select the Encryption Mode.
For Encryption Mode
WEP:
Specify the encryption keys. There are two methods to set the WEP keys, as described
below:
Key will be generated automatically for data private
To create encryption keys automatically, click the
Key will be generated automatically for data
private
check box.
Note:
This function is used in IEEE802.1X Authentication mode. Keys are dynamically
generated and distributed by the authentication server. Actually, you can obtain keys by
asking your service provider for further configuration and information to gain access to
the wireless network.
