mode.
2 In User name, type the user name for your RADIUS account.
3 In Password, type the password for your RADIUS account.
4 Click Apply.
The Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) option improves data
encryption over WEP scheme by dynamically updating the encryption
keys every 10,000 packets. TKIP provides per-packet key mixing, a
message integrity check, and a re-keying mechanism.
To use TKIP:
1 On the Wireless Security page, select TKIP.
2 Select WPA-PSK for home network or WPA for the scenarios where
RADIUS servers are employed:
WPA-PSK (in infrastructure mode) or WPA-NONE (in ad-hoc mode):
■
Enter a pass-phrase key or hexadecimal key. The key can be generated
based on a pass-phrase or a sequence of manually entered 64
hexadecimals. The 64 hexadecimals can be automatically generated
by selecting Generate a Random Key.
WPA: Select an authentication type, and enter a user name and a
■
password for TTLS and PEAP, or select a user certificate for TLS. If you
select LEAP-compatible mode, enter the user name and password for
your RADIUS account. These options are not available in ad-hoc mode.
