Table 21 Wireless LAN > General: WPA(2)-PSK
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Security Mode Choose WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK from the drop-down list box.
Active Compatible This field is only available for WPA2-PSK. Select this if you want the ZyXEL
Device to support WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK simultaneously.
Pre-Shared Key The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same.
The only difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common
password, instead of user-specific credentials.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including
spaces and symbols).
(WPA) Group Key
Update Timer The ( WPA ) Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using
WPA(2)-PSK key management) or RADIUS server (if using WPAWPA(2) key
management) sends a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is
the WPA(2) equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all
stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the
( WPA ) Group Key Update
Timer is also supported in WPA(2)-PSK mode. The ZyXEL Device default is 1800
seconds (30 minutes).
WPA Encryption Select the encryption type ( TKIP or AES ) for data encryption.
