Auth. Mode: There are three modes available to choose from:

•Open Authentication – the sender and receiver do not share a secret Key for communication. Instead, each party generates its own key-pairs and asks the other party to accept it. The key is regenerated when the connection is established every time.

•Shared Authentication – the sender and receiver shares the common key for data communication, and the key is used for extended length of time.

•Auto – requires communication to be established, and automatically use the proper authentication mode.
