Security
This router provides complete wireless LAN security functions, include WEP, IEEE
802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS.
With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal
access. Please make sure your wireless stations use the same security function.
Parameter Description
Encryption You can choose "None" to disable the encryption or select
"WEP", "WPA(TKIP)", "WPA2(AES)" or "WPA2 Mixed" mode for
security. When "WEP" is enabled, please click "Set WEP Key"
button to choose the default key and set the four sets of WEP
keys.
WEP –WEP is less level of security than WPA. WEP supports
64-bit and 128-bit key lengths to encrypt the wireless data.
WPA(TKIP) – WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(TKIP) for data encryption. TKIP utilized a stronger encryption
method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to
provide protection against hackers.
WPA2(AES) – WPA2, also known as 802.11i, uses Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES) for data encryption. AES utilized a
symmetric 128-bit block data encryption.
WPA Mixed – The router supports WPA (TKIP) and WPA2
(AES) for data encryption. The actual selection of the
encryption methods will depend on the clients.
Use 802.1x IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must
