38 CHAPTER 3: CONFIGURING THE ETHERNET ADAPTER
TKIP
The Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) option improves data
encryption over WEP scheme by dynamically updating the encryption
keys every 10,000 packets. TKIP provides per-packet key mixing, a
message integrity check, and a re-keying mechanism.
To use TKIP:
1 On the Wireless Security page, select TKIP.
2 Select WPA-PSK for home network or WPA for the scenarios where
RADIUS servers are employed:
■ WPA-PSK: Enter a pass-phrase key or hexadecimal key. The key can be
generated based on a pass-phrase or a sequence of manually entered
64 hexadecimals. The 64 hexadecimals can be automatically
generated by selecting Generate a Random Key.
■ WPA: Select an authentication scheme (TTLS or PEAP) and a relevant
authentication type, and enter a user name and a password.
3 Select Apply.
Click the button of TKIP to set TKIP relevant parameters.
AES
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) option uses the highest security
cipher for data encryption.
To use AES:
1 On the Wireless Security page, select AES.
2 Select WPA-PSK for home network or WPA for the scenarios where
RADIUS servers are employed:
■ WPA-PSK: Enter a pass-phrase key or hexadecimal key. The key can be
generated based on a pass-phrase or a sequence of manually entered
64 hexadecimals. The 64 hexadecimals can be automatically
generated by selecting Generate a Random Key.
If the network mode is set to Ad-hoc (Peer-to-Peer), the option
WPA-NONE appears, instead of WPA-PSK.
■ WPA: Select an authentication scheme (TTLS or PEAP) and a relevant
authentication type, and enter a user name and a password.
3 Select Apply.
Click the button of AES to set or modify AES relevant parameters.
