Security Settings - WPA-PSK
Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more secure than WEP, and
should be used if possible. The PSK (Pre-shared Key) must be entered on each Wire-
less station. The 256Bit encryption key is derived from the PSK, and changes
frequently.

Enter the key value. Data is encrypted using a 256Bit key
derived from this key. Other Wireless Stations must use the
same key.
The encryption method is TKIP. Wireless Stations must
also use TKIP.
This refers to the key used for broadcast transmissions.
Enable this if you want the keys to be updated regularly.
This field determines how often the Group key is dynamical-
ly updated. Enter the desired value.
If enabled, the Group key will be updated whenever any
member leaves the group or disassociates from the Access
Point.
