Configuring WPA

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a security enhancement to the IEEE 802.11 wireless standard. WPA provides enhanced encryption with new cipher suites and provides per-packet message integrity checks. WPA is based on the 802.11i standard. You can use WPA with 802.1X authentication. If the client does not support 802.1X, you can use a preshared key on the AP access point and the client for authentication.
