It must be used in conjunction with an authentication server such as RADIUS to provide
centralized access control and management. It can provide stronger encryption and
authentication solution than none WPA modes. WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security
WPA-PSK (WPA-Pre-Shared Key) /WPA2-PSK (WPA2-Pre-Shared Key):
It is useful for small places without authentication servers such as the network at home. It allows
the use of manually-entered keys or passwords and is designed to be easily set up for home
users.
WEP Encryption:
You can choose 64-bit or 128-bit according to your needs. If you choose Disabled, the Network
Keys will not be shown on this page. If selected, the data is encrypted using the key before being
transmitted. For example, if you set 128-bit in this field, then the receiving station must be set
to use the128 Bit Encryption, and have the same Key value too. Otherwise, it will not be able to
decrypt the data.
