SECURITY SETTINGS
To prevent misuse, the MP.11/a provides wireless data encryption and password-protected access. It is
important to set the encryption parameters and change the default passwords.
Encryption
You can protect the wireless data link by using encryption. Encryption keys can be 5 (64-bit), 13 (WEP
128-bit), or 16 (AES 128-bit) characters in length. Both ends of the wireless data link must use the
same parameter values. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption is supported on the MP.11a
only.
To set the encryption parameters, click the Configure button, the Security tab, and the Encryption
sub-tab.
You can set the following encryption parameters:
