Encryption
Encryption is used to convert plain text data into unreadable codes with certain
type of algorithm before capsulation for wireless transmission. WiFi-AP Solo
supports the following encryption methods:
WEP:
TKIP:
AES:
TKIP + AES: For a network where WPA clients (using TKIP encryption) and WPA2
3-24
WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It uses 64 or 128-bit static
keys. You can let the system generate the WEP keys by inputting a
Passphrase.
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) dynamically generates unique
keys to encypt every data packet in a wireless session.
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a dependable encryption
adopted in WPA2 or IEEE802.11i standard. It offers stronger protection
and greatly increases the complexity of wireless encryption.
clients (using AES encryption) co-exit. Select this option to enable both.
