WPA / WPA2
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) combines Temporal Key Integrity
Protocol (TKIP) and 802.1x mechanisms. It provides dynamic key
encryption and 802.1x authentication service. With TKIP, WPA
uses 48-bit initialization vectors, calculates an 8-byte message
integrity code, and generates an encryption key periodically. For
authentication, it allows you to use 802.1x authentication for an
environment with a RADIUS server installed on your network.
Selecting the Pre-shared Key enables WPA to use the pre-shared key
in a SOHO network.
