WPA/WPA2:

WPA (Wi-FiProtected Access) authentication is suitable for enterprises. It must be used in

 

conjunction with an authentication server such as RADIUS to provide centralized access

 

control and management. It can provide stronger encryption and authentication solution

 

than non WPA modes.

WPA-PSK/WPA2-

A newer type of security is WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES). This type of security

PSK:

gives a more secure network when compared to WEP. Use TKIP Encryption Type for WPA-

 

PSK and AES for WPA2-PSK. After that, please enter the key in the Passphrase field. The

 

key needs to be more than 8 characters and less than 63 characters and it can be any

 

combination of letters and numbers. Please note that the configuration for WPA-PSK and

 

WPA2-PSK is identical.

802.1x:

In order to use 802.1X security, you need to have a RADIUS server on your network that will act as the

 

authentication server. Please type in the details for your RADIUS server in the fields required.

 

 

Note: After configuring wireless security, you also need to configure your wireless adapter to use the same security settings before you can connect wirelessly. Not all wireless adapters support WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK/WPA/WPA2 security; please refer to your wireless adapter user guide for more details. It is strongly recommended to set up a simple wireless security such as WEP 64bit or WPA (when the wireless client supports WPA) in order to secure your network.
