Data Encryption: You an select multiple encryption methods.
n
Use any available encryption method: Enables all of the methods. The capabilities of the
l
wireless network determines the actual method used.
Use the following selected method(s): Selects one or more encryption methods.
l
Open System: Does not use encryption over the wireless link. Open System encryption is
l
valid only with Open System and Shared Key authentication.
WEP: Uses Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption over the wireless link. You can use
l
WEP encryption with any of the above authentication methods.
TKIP: Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption over the wireless link. You
l
can use TKIP encryption with WPA-PSK and WPA with 802.1x authentication.
CCMP: Uses CCMP (AES) encryption over the wireless link. You can use CCMP WPA-PSK and
l
WPA with 802.1x authentication.
WEP Keys
n
Transmit Key: Specify the corresponding key of the encryption key used when
l
communicating with wireless networks using WEP security.
This device allows up to four wireless keys to be set of either 64-bit or 128-bit encryption.
These keys allow the wireless network to traverse different wireless networks without
having to change the wireless key. Instead, only the transmit key setting has to be
changed to specify which wireless key to send.
Encryption Keys: Specify 1 to 4 encryption keys to use when communicating with wireless
l
networks using WEP security.
The encryption keys is a set of 10 (64-bit) or 26 (128-bit) hexadecimal characters. The
encryption key only contains the characters A-F, a-f, or 0-9. Optionally, you can use
separator characters, such as '-', '_', or '.' to separate the set of characters.
WPA PSK (Pre-Shared Key) Passphrase/Confirm: The passphrase that the Wi-Fi network
n
uses with WPA pre-shared keys. The pre-shared key is calculated using the passphrase and the
SSID. Therefore, a valid network name must have been previously specified. In the Confirm
field, reenter the passphrase.
Username/Password/Confirm: The user name and password combination used to
n
authenticate on the network when using these authentication methods: WEP with 802.1x
authentication, WPA with 802.1x authentication, or LEAP. In the Confirm field, reenter the
password.
Wi-Fi 802.1x authentication settings
These settings are not required based on the current Wi-Fi authentication settings. They are only
configurable when WEP with 802.1x authentication or WPA with 802.1x authentication are
enabled on the WiFi Security Settings tab.
EAP Methods: These are the types of Extensible Authentication Protocols (EAP) or outer
n
protocols that are allowed to establish the initial connection with an authentication server or
