y Key 1 to Key 4 – If the key length is 64-bit, enter 10-digit Hex values or 5-digit
ASCII values as the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef“ or “Guest“.
If the key length is 128-bit, enter 26-digit Hex values or 13-digit ASCII values as
the encryption keys. For example: “01234567890123456789abcdef“ or
“administrator“.
WPA-shared key Security Mode:
When “WPA-shared key”, also named “WPA-PSK” requires users to
select the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP or AES and enter a
set of shared key.
y TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every
10,000 packets. This insures much greater security than the standard WEP
security.
y AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and
authenticity for digital information and it is the most advanced solution defined
by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the wireless network.
y Shared Key – Enter 8 to 63 digits of ASCII format to be the key for the
authentication within the network.
