WPA/WPA2
WPA or Wireless Protection Access is a new an improved standard of wireless security.
WPA offers encryption keys of up to 256-bits that automatically change frequently. On
this router, the WPA utilizes the RADIUS protocol, which utilizes a server to authorize
the user by matching a Shared Secret password listed in its RADIUS database. There
are two choices for the user to choose from. WPA and WPA2, both use the Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES). In order to use this function, a RADIUS server must be
established on a computer on the LAN. This RADIUS server must be configured to have
the same key as the users on the LAN accessing it.
RADIUS Server IP – Enter the IP address of the remote RADIUS server through which
you will be authenticated.
Port – Enter the virtual port number to which to connect through the RADIUS server.
Common port numbers for RADIUS are 1812 and 1813.
Shared Secret – Enter the password that will be used to authenticate you on the
wireless network. This password must be the same on the RADIUS server in order for
you to be authorized. (NOTE: For the client implementation of this function, please see
the user manual for the associated client PC.)
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) uses the same encryption as the WPA but is implemented
differently. All devices on the wireless network share the same key (Passphrase) to
activate the WPA security. There are two choices for the user to choose from.
WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK, which both use the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
To utilize, select one of the previous choices, enter the Passphrase, confirm it in the
