32
Security Type:
Select the desired security type from the drop-down list; the options are
WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise and WEP 802.1X.
Disable:
Data are unencrypted during transmission when this option is selected.
WEP:
WEP, Wired Equivalent Privacy, is a data encryption mechanism based on a 64-bit,
128-bit or 152-bit shared key. Select WEP as the security type from the drop down list as
desired.
Key Length:
The key size of WEP encryption can be 64bit, 128bit or 152bit.
WEP auth method:
You can select the appropriate value: Open system (If enabling
this mode, there is no need authentication to access AP or Wireless NIC) or Shared
(Only those who are sharing the same key with the AP can connect with it).
Key Index:
You can select the Key which you want to use. Other wireless station must
have the same key value to connect with 100GX-N, 4 different WEP keys can be
configured at the same time, but only one is used. Effective key is set with a choice of
WEP Key 1, 2, 3 or 4.
WEP Key #:
You can chose either HEX or ASCII for your WEP key value, for 64bit
encryption strength can use 10 digits for HEX (0~9, a~f and A-F) or 5 digits for ASCII
(0~9, a~z and A~Z), for 128bit encryption strength can use 26 digits for HEX (0~9, a~f
and A-F) or 13 digits for ASCII (0~9, a~z and A~Z), for 152bit encryption strength can
use 32 digits for HEX (0~9, a~f and A-F) or 16 digits for ASCII (0~9, a~z and A~Z)
WPA-PSK (or WPA2-PSK):
WPA-PSK is short for W-Fi Protected
Access-Pre-Shared Key. WPA-SPK uses the same encryption way with WPA, and the only
difference between them is that WPA-PSK recreates a simple shared key, instead of using the
user’s certification.
