Encryption
When this checkbox is selected, it enables data encryption and prompts the
Encryption Strength drop-down menu. Data Encryption (WEP Enabled) and
Network Authentication use the same key.
Encryption
A session's key strength is proportional to the number of binary bits comprising the
strength
session key file. This means that session keys with a greater number of bits have a
greater degree of security, and are considerably more difficult to forcibly decode.
This drop-down menu sets either a 64 8-bit (5-ASCII character or 10-hexadecimal
character) or 128 8-bit (13-ASCII character or 26-hexadecimal character) key.
If you set a minimum 128-bit key strength, users attempting to establish a secure
communications channel with your server must use a browser capable of
communicating with a 128-bit session key.
The Encryption Strength settings do not display unless the network Authentication
(shared Mode) check box is selected.
