Security Options
If you want to change the WiFi security for an SSID in the 5 GHz band, select one of the following WiFi security
options for that SSID in the guest WiFi network:
• None. An open WiFi network that does not provide any security. Any WiFi device can join the selected WiFi
network in the 5 GHz band of the guest WiFi network. This is the default setting for the guest WiFi network.
• WPA2-PSK [AES]. WPA2 provides a secure and fast connection but some older WiFi devices do not detect
WPA2 and support only WPA. Select WPA2-PSK [AES] security to allow 802.11ac and 802.11n devices to
connect to the selected WiFi network in the 5 GHz band of the guest WiFi network at the fastest speed. If
your network includes older devices that do not support WPA2, select WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]
security.
To use WPA2 security, in the Passphrase field, enter a phrase of 8 to 63 characters. To join the WiFi network
in the 5 GHz band of the guest WiFi network, a user must enter this passphrase.
• WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]. This type of security enables WiFi devices that support either WPA
or WPA2 to join the selected WiFi network in the 5 GHz band of the guest WiFi network. However, WPA-PSK
[TKIP] is less secure than WPA2-PSK [AES] and limits the speed of WiFi devices to 54 Mbps.
To use WPA + WPA2 security, in the Passphrase field, enter a phrase of 8 to 63 characters. To join the
5 GHz band of the guest WiFi network, a user must enter this passphrase.
