Ad Hoc When
associates to another station radio that is
in ad hoc mode and has the same SSID
and, if configured, static WEP key.
Default: ABG rates full
802.11 authentication type used when associating to an AP.
Value: Open, Shared (shared-key), LEAP (Network-EAP)
Default: Open
It is recommended that the default setting Open is selected.
WPA and WPA2 support the same authentication methods and
similar key management methods; the difference is mainly in
area of encryption. WPA defines TKIP as the primary encryption
method, while WPA2 defines AES-CCMP as the primary
encryption method.
Value: None, WPA, WPA2
Default: None
This specifies the type of key used to encrypt and decrypt
transmitted data, and how that key is specified or derived. Select
Encryption type in the Value drop-down box.
Item Description
None N/A
TKIP The encryption method defined with WPA.
TKIP uses RC4 encryption as does WEP.
AES-CCMP The encryption method defined with IEEE
802.11i and certified with WPA2. AES-CCMP is
stronger than RC4
WEP The encryption method defined with the
original IEEE 802.11 standards; encrypts
transmitted data using 64-bit or 128-bit
encryption.
CKIP CKIP is supported for use only with static WEP.
For CKIP, encryption keys need to be defined
in SCU; for CKIP-EAP, encryption keys are
derived
authentication.
This is the protocol used to authenticate the device and its user if
the WLAN uses the Enterprise version of Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) and WPA2. Select Authentication type in the Value
drop-down box, then enter the credentials necessary for each
type in the appeared fields.
