Security

Function

Select one of the following security methods.

When setting up security, follow the instructions from the administrator of the network system you are about to access. WEP: Data is encrypted with a code key (WEP key)

This mechanism prevents communication unless the encrypted keys for the access point and the projector match.

WPA/WPA2: This is an encryption standard that improves security which is a weak point of WEP. Although there are multiple kinds of WPA encryption methods, this projector uses "TKIP" and "AES".

WPA also includes user authentication functions. WPA authentication provides two methods: using an authentication server, or authenticating between a computer and an access point without a server. This projector supports the latter method, without a server.

EAP: EAP is a protocol used for communication between clients and authentication severs. These are multiple protocols, such as EAP-TLS which uses electronic certification for user authentication, LEAP which uses user name and password, and EAP-TTLS.
