Enter the frequency (in seconds) with which you want
the CGN to create new pre-shared keys, and issue them
to the wireless client.
Enter the pre-shared key that you want to use for your
wireless network. You will need to enter this key into
your wireless clients in order to allow them to connect to
the network.
Use this field to allow pre-authentication (Enable) in
WPA2, or deny pre-authentication requests (Disable).
In preauthentication, a WPA2 wireless client can
perform authentication with other wireless access points
in its range when it is still connected to its current
wireless access point. This allows mobile wireless
clients to connect to new access points more quickly,
permitting more efficient roaming.
