ZyXEL Communications AMG1302-T series User Manual page 97

The WPA security mode is a security subset of WPA2. It requires the presence of a RADIUS server
on your network in order to validate user credentials. This encryption standard is slightly older than
WPA2 and therefore is more compatible with older devices.
Click Network Setting > Wireless to display the General screen. Select More Secure as the
security level. Then select WPA or WPA2 from the Security Mode list.

You need not change this value unless your network administrator instructs you to do
so with additional information.
Enter a password (up to 31 alphanumeric characters) as the key to be shared between
the external authentication server and the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries.
The key must be the same on the external authentication server and your AMG1302/
AMG1202-TSeries. The key is not sent over the network.

Enter how often the external authentication server requires a connected wireless client
to reauthenticate itself to the server again.
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and passwords in order
to stay connected.
This field is available only when you select WPA2 as security mode. If wireless station
authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the reauthentication timer on the
RADIUS server has priority.
This field is only available for WPA2. Select this if you want the AMG1302/AMG1202-
TSeries to support WPA and WPA2 simultaneously.
