the devices in your network when using the 802.1x feature.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast, the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be changed manually.)

WPA-PSKallows home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network, access to WPA security. Utilizing the Pre-Shared Key mode of WPA, the OUTDOOR BRIDGE will obtain a new security key every time it connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your encryption information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the OUTDOOR BRIDGE and WPA-PSK, you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communication.
