For WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

WiFi-Protected Access: The WPA is suitable for enterprises. It must be used in conjunction with an authentication server such as RADIUS to provide centralized access control and management. It can provides stronger encryption and authentication solution than others WPA mode.

WPA Group Rekey Interval: Type in the time for the WAP group rekey interval. The unit is second.

RADIUS Server IP Address: RADIUS Server is a protocol for carrying authentication, authorization, and configuration information between a Network Access Server which desires to authenticate its links and a shared Authentication Server. Please type in the IP Address for the RADIUS Server.

RADIUS UDP Port: Except for the IP address of the RADIUS Server, you have to enter the port number for the server. Port 1812 is the reserved RADIUS-authentication port described in RFC 2138. Earlier RADIUS clients use port 1945. The default value will be shown on this box. You can keep and use it.

RADIUS Share Secret: A share secret is like a password, which is used between IAS and the specific RADIUS client to verify identity. Both IAS and the RADIUS client must be use the same shared secret for successful communication to occur. Type in the words for the share secret.

Data Encryption (WPA): Select the data encryption for the WPA mode. There are three types that you can choose, TKIP, AES, TKIP+AES.

TKIP takes the original master key only as a starting point and derives its encryption keys mathematically from this mater key. Then it regularly changes and rotates the encryption keys so that the same encryption key will be never used twice.

AES provides security between client workstations operating in ad hoc mode. It uses a mathematical ciphering algorithm that employs variable key sizes of 128, 192 or 256 bits.

TKIP+AES combines the features and functions of TKIP and AES.

After finished settings, click Apply for activation.
