WPAPSK/WPA2PSK mixed mode
Clients using WPA or WPA2
with a Pre-shared Key are accepted for authentication. The default
data encryption type is TKIP/AES.
EncryptType
Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default is
determined by the Security Mode selected.)
TKIP
Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for
encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to
replace WEP. TKIP avoids the problems of WEP static keys by
dynamically changing data encryption keys.
AES
Uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys for
encryption. WPA2 uses AES Counter-Mode encryption with Cipher
Block Chaining Message Authentication Code (CBC-MAC) for
message integrity. The AES Counter-Mode/CBCMAC Protocol (AES-
CCMP) provides extremely robust data confidentiality using a 128-
bit key. Use of AES-CCMP encryption is specified as a standard
requirement for WPA2. Before implementing WPA2 in the network,
be sure client devices are upgraded to WPA2-compliant hardware.
TKIPAES
Uses either TKIP or AES keys for encryption. WPA and
WPA2 mixed modes allow both WPA and WPA2 clients to associate
to a common SSID. In mixed mode, the unicast encryption type
(TKIP or AES) is negotiated for each client.
Pass Phrase
The WPA Preshared Key can be input as an ASCII
string (an easy-to-remember form of letters and numbers that can
include spaces) or Hexadecimal format. (Range: 8~63 ASCII
characters, or exactly 64 Hexadecimal digits)
