Setup

Security Settings - WPA-PSK

Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more secure than WEP, and should be used if possible. The PSK (Pre-shared Key) must be entered on each Wireless station. The 256Bit encryption key is derived from the PSK, and changes frequently.

WPA-PSK

Network Key	Enter the key value. Data is encrypted using a 256Bit key
	derived from this key. Other Wireless Stations must use the
	same key.
WPA Encryption	Select the desired option. Other Wireless Stations must use the
	same method.
	• TKIP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmissions are en-
	crypted using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast)
	transmissions are not encrypted.
	• TKIP + 64 bit WEP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmis-
	sions are encrypted using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast)
	transmissions are encrypted using 64 bit WEP.
	• TKIP + 128 bit WEP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmis-
	sions are encrypted using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast)
	transmissions are encrypted using 128 bit WEP.
	• AES - CCMP - CCMP is the most common sub-type of
	AES (Advanced Encryption System). Most systems will
	simply say "AES". If selected, both Unicast (point-to-point)
	and multicast (broadcast) transmissions are encrypted using
	AES.
