ProSafe Wireless-N 8-Port Gigabit VPN Firewall FVS318N
eavesdropper. This data encryption mode has been superseded by WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK.
For information about how to configure WEP, see
Security Profiles on page 93.
• WPA. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption provides strong data security with
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) or a combination of TKIP and Counter Mode with
Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol (CCMP) encryption. The
very strong authentication along with dynamic per frame rekeying of WPA make it virtually
impossible to compromise. The wireless VPN firewall supports WPA with a pre-shared
key (PSK), RADIUS, or a combination of PSK and RADIUS.
For more information about how to configure WPA, see
Security Profiles on page 93.
• WPA2. Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2 (WPA2) data encryption provides strong data
security with CCMP encryption or a combination of TKIP and CCMP encryption. WPA2
provides the most reliable security. Use WPA2 only if all clients in your network support
WPA2. The wireless VPN firewall supports WPA2 with PSK, RADIUS, or a combination of
PSK and RADIUS.
For more information about how to configure WPA2, see
Security Profiles on page 93.
• WPA+WPA2 mixed mode. This mode supports data encryption with a combination of
TKIP and CCMP for both WPA and WPA2 clients. The very strong authentication along
with dynamic per frame rekeying of WPA2 make it virtually impossible to compromise.
The wireless VPN firewall supports WPA+WPA2 with PSK, RADIUS, or a combination of
PSK and RADIUS.
For more information about how to configure WPA+WPA2 mixed mode, see
and Enable Wireless Security Profiles
Note: TKIP provides only legacy (slower) rates of operation. NETGEAR
recommends WPA2 with CCMP to make use of 802.11n rates and
speed.
