Authentication
As there is no accurate limit of wireless network, the wireless network
users need complement the specific configuration for security. The
authentication in this tab provides the different protection levels, such as
open, shared encryption key, LEAP, WPA, WPA, WPA-PSK,WPA2，
WPA2-PSK.
Open – this option makes the network run in the open system mode w/o
any authentication. Open base station and AP could authenticate each
other even there is WEP encryption key.
Shared encryption key- this option makes the network run in shared
encryption key. In shared encryption key authentication system modem,
it need four-step frame switch ensure if the base station uses the same
WEP encryption key as the AP.
LEAP: LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an edition of
EAP（Extensible Authentication Protocol）,EAP ensures the mutual
authentication between the wireless network users and the server in the
networking operation centre.
WPA-PSK/ WPA2-PSK – this option permits the use of WPA Pre-
Shared encryption key in infrastructure mode and permit you use the
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK encryption between users and AP.
WPA/ WPA2 – the network uses the authentication IEEE 802.1x.which
can adapt to RADIUS（Remote Access Dial-in User Service，Telnet）
.RADIUS supports multi EPA including PEAP,TLS/Smart Card, TTLS
and LEAP.
Data encryption
In the modes of open authentication and shared key authentication, the
options of encryption are FORBID and WEP, in the modes of WPA,
WPA-PSK, WPA2 and WPA2-PSK，it supports TemporalKey Integrity
