Encryption

In infrastructure mode:

 

 

 

 

 

Disable – the communication is not encrypted.

 

 

 

WEP – the communication is encrypted using 64/128/256 bit WEP.

 

 

 

TKIP – replaces WEP with a stronger encryption algorithm. The

 

 

 

passwords change dynamically, and the change is synchronized be-

 

 

 

tween the access point and the wireless client.

 

 

 

AES – another encryption method, more secure than WEP.

 

 

 

In ad-hoc mode:

 

 

 

Enable WEP – encryption is enabled.

 

 

 

Disable WEP – encryption is disabled.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Authen-

The following authentication modes are available:

 

 

tication

Open System - the simplest authentication method. The client

 

 

Mode

sends out a request and the access point authenticates it. There is

 

 

 

no encryption.

 

 

 

Shared Key – this method uses a WEP encrypted password for

 

 

 

authentication. The client will be authenticated by the access point

 

 

 

only if the passwords match.

 

 

 

Auto – in this mode, the access point provides the method for au-

 

 

 

thentication and the client uses the offered method, if available.

 

 

 

In the infrastructure mode, two more modes are available:

 

 

 

WPA – uses a combination of Open System and 802.1x authentica-

 

 

 

tion. First the wireless client authenticates with the access point,

 

 

 

then performs user-level authentication with 802.1x.

 

 

 

WPA PSK - a WPA pre-shared-key mode, which doesn’t require

 

 

 

802.1x authentication. The authentication in this mode is based on

 

 

 

shared secrets, stored both on the access point and on the wireless

 

 

 

client.

 

 

 

WPA2 and WPA2 PSK – second generation of the Wi-Fi Protect-

 

 

 

ed Access based on the final IEEE 802.11i amendment to the 802.11

 

 

 

standard.
