Encryption with 802.11i/WPA

To activate the 802.11i encryption for a correctly configured P2P connection,
adjust the settings for the first logical WLAN network in the appropriate
WLAN interface (i.e. WLAN-1 if you are using the first WLAN card for the P2P
connection, WLAN-2 if you are using the second card, e.g. as with an access
point with two WLAN modules).
When set as P2P Master, the passphrase entered here will be used to check
the Slave's authorization to access. When set as P2P Slave, the access point
transfers this information to register with the remote site.
Configuration with
For configuration with LANconfig you will find the encryption settings under
LANconfig
the configuration area 'WLAN Security' on the '802.11i/WEP' tab.
60
Activate the 802.11i encryption.
Select the method '802.11i (WPA)-PSK'.
Enter the passphrase to be used.
The passphrases should consist of a random string at least 22 charac-
ters long, corresponding to a cryptographic strength of 128 bits.
