Security Profiles - NETGEAR ProSAFE WNDAP380R Reference Manual

ProSAFE Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point with RFID Support, WNDAP380R
WPA-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication; for more information, see the
following sections:
- Configure and Enable Security Profiles
- Configure WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
• WPA2 and WPA2-PSK (AES). Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2 (WPA2) data encryption
provides strong data security with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. The
very strong authentication along with dynamic per-frame rekeying of WPA2 makes it
virtually impossible to compromise.
WPA2 uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication; for more information, see the following
sections:
- Configure and Enable Security Profiles
- Configure WPA with RADIUS, WPA2 with RADIUS, and WPA & WPA2 with RADIUS
on page 53
WPA2-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication; for more information, see the
following sections:
- Configure and Enable Security Profiles
- Configure WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
• WPA & WPA2 and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK mixed modes. These modes support data
encryption either with both WPA and WPA2 clients or with both WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK clients and provide the most reliable security.
WPA & WPA2 uses RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication; for more information, see the
following sections:
- Configure and Enable Security Profiles
- Configure WPA with RADIUS, WPA2 with RADIUS, and WPA & WPA2 with RADIUS
on page 53
WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for authentication; for more
information, see the following sections:
- Configure and Enable Security Profiles
- Configure WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK
