Field	Description
Open	From the list, select one of the following:
	• Yes—Allows any device, regardless of its WEP
	keys, to authenticate and attempt to associate. This is
	the recommended setting.
	• No—Does not allow any device, regardless of its
	WEP keys, to authenticate and attempt to associate.
Shared	From the list, select one of the following:
	• Yes—Tells the access point to send a plain-text,
	shared key query to any device attempting to
	associate with the access point. This query can leave
	the access point open to a known-text attack from
	intruders. This is not as secure as the Open setting.
	• No—Does not allow the access point to send a
	plain-text, shared key query to any device attempting
	to associate with the access point.
Network-EAP	From the list, select one of the following:
	• Yes—Allows EAP-enabled client devices to
	authenticate through the access point.
	• No—Does not allow EAP-enabled client devices to
	authenticate through the access point.
Require EAP
Open	From the list, select one of the following:
	• Yes—Use this option if you use open and EAP
	authentication to block client devices that are not
	using EAP from authenticating through the access
	point.
	• No—Use this option if you do not use open and EAP
	authentication.
