Configuring Wireless Clients To Use Muvpn; Restricting Wireless Access By Mac Address - Watchguard Firebox X15 User Manual

If you typed more than one key, click the key to use as the
default key from the Key Index drop-down list.
The Firebox X Edge can use only one key at a time. If you select a key
other than the first key in the list, you must also set your wireless client
to use the same key.
WPA-PSK authentication
The encryption options for WPA-PSK authentication are TKIP, AES,
and Auto. WPA-PSK only operates correctly if you are using Win-
dows XP Service Pack 2 or higher or have installed a driver for your
operating system that supports PSK.
We recommend that you set the WPA-PSK encryption option to
Auto to have the Firebox accept TKIP and AES settings.

Restricting Wireless Access by MAC Address

You can control access to the Firebox®X Edge Wireless by computer
hardware (MAC) address. If this feature is enabled, and the MAC
address of a computer that tries to connect to the Firebox X Edge
Wireless is not included in this configuration, the connection fails.
When you restrict wireless access by MAC address, it is possible that
a hacker can get access to the wireless network by spoofing an
allowed MAC address. Use authentication and encryption together
