DESCRIPTION
Select WPA-PSK from the drop-down list.
The encryption mechanisms used for WPA and WPA-PSK are the same. The only
difference between the two is that WPA-PSK uses a simple common password,
instead of user-specific credentials.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including
spaces and symbols).
Specify how often wireless stations have to reenter usernames and passwords in
order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds.
If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the
reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority.
The ZyWALL automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network
after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the username and
password again before access to the wired network is allowed.
Click Local User to go to the Local User Database screen where you can view
and/or edit the list of users and passwords. Click RADIUS to go to the RADIUS
screen where you can configure the ZyWALL to check an external RADIUS server
WPA and clients running WEP security in the same Wi-Fi network.
Select Enable to activate WPA mixed mode. Otherwise, select Disable.
