Figure 27: Security Mode - WPA

The following items are displayed in this section on this page:
Security Mode — Configures the WPA and WPA2 security modes used by
clients. When using WPA or WPA2, be sure there is a RADIUS server in the
connected wired network, and that the RADIUS settings are configured.
See "IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS" on page 55
(Default: Disable)
◆ WPA — Clients using WPA with an 802.1X authentication method are
accepted for authentication. The default data encryption type for WPA
is TKIP.
WPA2 — Clients using WPA2 with an 802.1X authentication method
◆
are accepted for authentication. The default data encryption type for
WPA is AES.
◆ WPA1_WPA2 — Clients using WPA or WPA2 with an 802.1X
authentication method are accepted for authentication. The default
data encryption type is TKIP/AES.
WPA Algorithms — Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default
◆
is determined by the Security Mode selected.)
TKIP — Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for
■
encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to
replace WEP. TKIP avoids the problems of WEP static keys by
dynamically changing data encryption keys.
