Hawking Technology HWU54DM instruction

Parameter	Description
Network Authentication	Open –No authentication is needed among the wireless network.
	Shared – Only wireless stations using a shared key (WEP Key
	identified) are allowed to connecting each other.
	WPA – This mode is for enterprise with an authentication server
	(Radius Server), WPA-enabled access point, and a WPA-enabled
	client. Once WPA is enabled, all clients and access points on the
	network must b e WPA-enabled in order to access the network.
	WPA-PSK– It is a special mode designed for home and small
	business users who do not have access to network authentication
	servers. In this mode, known as Pre-Shared Key, the user
	manually enters the starting password in their access point or
	gateway, as well as in each PC on the wireless network. WPA
	takes over automatically from that point, keeping unauthorized
	users that don't have the matching password from joining the
	network, while encrypting the data traveling between authorized
	devices.

Parameter	Description

Data Encryption	WEP – In WPA or WPA-PSK mode, WEP is also able to be the
	encryption method for the transmission data.
	TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
	temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message
	transmitted over a network.) This insures much greater security
	than the standard WEP security.
	AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
	security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
	advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
	wireless network.
	Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption
	method to ensure the communication.
