Wired Equivalent Privacy; Wi-Fi Protected Access; Wi-Fi Protected Access2; Virtual Private Network - Avaya Communication Server 1000 Installation And Commissioning Manual

When WMM is used, all voice traffic originating from the wireless handset is assigned the WMM
Voice Access Category, making it the highest priority application. If the wireless network
supports WMM, the handsets enable WMM support automatically; otherwise, SpectraLink
Voice Prioritization (SVP) is used.

Wired Equivalent Privacy

The handsets support Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11a, b, and g
specification. Avaya offers the product with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption. WEP increases
the security of the wireless LAN to a level similar to a wired Ethernet LAN.

Wi-Fi Protected Access

The handsets support Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) using preshared key (PSK), as defined
by the 802.11i specification. WPA increases the security of the wireless LAN, using key
encryption, key rotation, authentication and message integrity checking.

Wi-Fi Protected Access2

The handsets support Wi-Fi Protected Access2 (WPA2) using preshared key (PSK) and
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), as defined by the 802.11i specification. WPA2
increases the security of the wireless LAN, using key encryption, key rotation, data encryption,
authentication, and message integrity checking.

Virtual Private Network

The WLAN Handset 2212 supports Virtual Private Network (VPN) security. VPN security
provides a secure tunnel for the transfer of unencrypted information. A two-phase approach is
used to negotiate the tunnel, with Phase 1 protecting Phase 2. Phase 1 uses preshared keys,
Diffie-Hellman group, hashing, and encryption. Phase 2 uses hashing and encryption. Both
phases have limited, configurable lifetimes.
