Connecting The Serial Device - Korenix 5804 User Manual

The 5804 also supports WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access). WPA was created by the Wi-Fi Alliance; it was
designed to enhance the security of wireless networks. WPA has better protection than WEP.
JetPort 5804 supports WPA Personal mode. This mode is designed for the networks which don't require
the complex 802.1x authentication server. The WPA personal mode requires manual configuration of a
PSK (Previously Share Key) on the AP and Client. The PSK is a passphrase (password), each client
must enter a passphrase to access the network, the security depends on the strength of the passphrase.
The passphrase may be from 8 to 63 printable ASCII characters or 64 hex decimal digits (256 bits). The
passphrase you typed will be stored in JetPort thus you can use this passphrase to communicate with the
AP.
JetPort 5804 WPA supports 2 encryption modes, TKIP and AES.
TKIP is short of Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. It's an enhancement to WEP security. TKIP uses the
RC4 stream cipher with 128-bit keys for encryption and 64-bit keys for authentication. TKIP helps to
ensure that only the intended audience understands the transmitted data.
AES is short of Advanced Encryption Standard. 5804 provides encryption support AES.
Choose the encryption type, TKIP or AES, then type the key in the WPA-PSK and time in the Key
Renewal Period (minutes) field.
Note: The above security settings should be the same in your access point (AP) and JetPort. Incorrect
password/key may lead you lost the connection.
