Configuring security
Simple wireless networks require WEP keys or a WPA/WPA2 passphrase, or may not have any security at all.
More‑advanced wireless network security can require one or more certificates and an authentication server. If the
network requires a certificate and you do not have it, fill out the certificate request form provided within the Wireless
Setup Utility and follow your organization's procedures for requesting a certificate for network access.
Following is the list of supported types of wireless network security and their requirements.
