Basic Setting
Enable SSID: Select to enable or disable the SSID broadcasting.
SSID: Enter the SSID for the current profile. This is the name that is visible to wireless clients on the
network.
Hidden SSID: Enable this option if you do not want to broadcast this SSID. This can help to discourage
wireless users from connecting to a particular SSID.
Client Isolation: When enabled, all communication between wireless clients connected to the same AP will
be blocked.
Security: Select encryption method (WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK, or none) and encryption algorithm (AES or
TKIP).
WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK: WPA with PSK (Pre-shared key / Personal mode), designed for home and
small office networks that don't require the complexity of an 802.1X authentication server.
o
Type: Select the WPA-PSK type to use. Available options are Mixed, WPA-PSK and WPA2-
PSK. Choose Mixed if your network has a mixture of older clients that only support WPA and
TKIP, and newer client devices that support WPA2 and AES.
o
Encryption: Select the WPA encryption type you would like. Your available options are: Both,
TKIP(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) and AES(Advanced Encryption Standard).
Note: Since TKIP is not permitted for 802.11n-based transmissions, setting the encryption
algorithm to TKIP when you are using an 802.11n or 802.11ac AP will cause the network to
operate in 802.11g mode.
o
WPA Passphrase: Enter the Passphrase you wish to use. If you are using the ASCII format,
the Key must be between 8~64 characters in length.
o
Group Key Update Interval: Specify how often, in seconds, the Group Key changes.
