WPA-Enterprise
This version of WPA requires a RADIUS server on your LAN to provide the client authentica-
tion according to the 802.1X standard. Data transmissions are encrypted using the WPA
standard.
If this option is used:
•
The access point must have a "client login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user must have a "user login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user's wireless client must support 802.1X and provide the login data when
required.
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA standard. Keys are automatically generated,
so no key input is required.
WPA2-Enterprise
This version of WPA2 requires a RADIUS server on your LAN to provide the client
authentication according to the 802.1X standard. Data transmissions are encrypted using the
WPA2 standard.
If this option is used:
•
The access point must have a "client login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user must have a "user login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user's wireless client must support 802.1X and provide the login data when
required.
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA2 standard. Keys are automatically generated,
so no key input is required.
802.1x
This uses the 802.1X standard for client authentication, and WEP for data encryption. If
possible, you should use WPA-Enterprise instead, because WPA encryption is much stronger
than WEP encryption.
If this option is used:
•
The access point must have a "client login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user must have a "user login" on the RADIUS server.
•
Each user's wireless client must support 802.1X and provide the login data when required.
•
All data transmission is encrypted using the WEP standard. You only have to select the
WEP key size; the WEP key is automatically generated.
