5.2.4.3 Security

This router provides complete wireless LAN security functions, including WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can protect your wireless LAN from illegal access. Make sure your wireless stations use the same security function.

Parameter	Description
Encryption	Choose “None” to disable the encryption, or select
	“WEP,” “WPA(TKIP),” “WPA2(AES)” or “WPA2 Mixed”
	mode for security. When “WEP” is enabled, click “Set
	WEP Key” to choose the default key and set the four sets
	of WEP keys.
	• WEP is a lower level of security than WPA, and
	supports 64-bit and 128-bit key lengths to encrypt the
	wireless data.
	• WPA (TKIP) uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
	(TKIP) for data encryption. TKIP utilizes a stronger
	encryption method and incorporates Message Integrity
	Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers.
	• WPA2 (AES) uses the Advanced Encryption Standard
	(AES) for data encryption, which utilizes a symmetric
	128-bit block data encryption.
	• WPA Mixed tells the router to support WPA (TKIP) and
