  • Page 18: Security Settings

    4.2.1 AP Security Setting We introduce six common encryption modes to you (support ten encryption modes), including Mixed WEP en- cryption, WPA-PSK, WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-PSK, WPA2-Enterprise, etc. Mixed WEP WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), a basic encryption method, usually encrypts wireless data using a series of digital keys (64 bits or 128 bits in length). By using the same keys on each of your wireless network devices, you can prevent unauthorized wireless devices from monitoring your transmissions or using your wireless resources. WEP is based on RSA algorithm from RC4. It is the original and weak encryption method, so it is recommended not to use this method. Select Mixed WEP to enter the following window: Setting Explanation h h SecurityhMode:hFrom the drop-down menu select the corresponding security encryption modes. h h WEPhKey1~4:hSet the WEP key with the format of ASCII and Hex.
