Section 3 - Conguration
Wireless Security Mode: WPA-Personal
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the most advanced and up to date
wireless encryption method used today. This is the recommended
wireless security option. WPA supports two authentication frameworks.
Personal (PSK) and Enterprise (EAP).
The following parameters will be available for conguration:
WPA Mode: WPA is the older standard; select this
option if the clients that will be used with
the router only support the older
standard. WPA2 is the newer
implementation of the stronger IEEE
802.11i security standard. With the “WPA2”
option, the router tries WPA2 rst, but falls
back to WPA if the client only supports
WPA. With the “WPA2 Only” option, the
router associates only with clients that
also support WPA2 security.
Cipher Type: Select the appropriate cipher type to use
here. Options to choose from are Temporal
Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES), and Both (TKIP
and AES).
Group Key Update Interval: Enter the amount of time before the group
key used for broadcast and multicast data
is changed.
Pre-Shared Key: Enter the shared secret used here. This secret phrase needs to be the same on all of the wireless clients for them to
be able to connect to the wireless network successfully.
