Wireless Security Overview
Wireless security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless clients, access points and the wired network.
Wireless security methods available on the WAP3205 are data encryption, wireless client authentication, restricting access by device MAC address and hiding the WAP3205 identity.
The following figure shows the relative effectiveness of these wireless security methods available on your WAP3205.
