using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast) transmissions are not
encrypted.
• TKIP + 64 bit WEP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmissions
are encrypted using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast) transmis-
sions are encrypted using 64 bit WEP.
• TKIP + 128 bit WEP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmissions
are encrypted using TKIP, and multicast (broadcast) transmis-
sions are encrypted using 128 bit WEP.
• AES - CCMP - CCMP is the most common sub-type of AES
(Advanced Encryption System). Most systems will simply say
"AES". If selected, both Unicast (point-to-point) and multicast
(broadcast) transmissions are encrypted using AES.
• AES - CCMP + TKIP - Unicast (point-to-point) transmissions
are encrypted using AES - CCMP, and multicast (broadcast)
transmissions are encrypted using TKIP.
