This tab displays information regarding the unit’s security configuration. Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an authentication algorithm that protects authorized
Wireless LAN users against eavesdropping and is implemented in D-Link
AirPremier DWL-1800 units. WEP is defined in the IEEE 802.11b standard. This
encryption is applicable for both authentication and data and the key length is
40 bits.
D-Link AirPremier DWL-1800 units can use one of the following authentication
algorithms (as defined in the IEEE 802.11b standard).
??
Open System
– Any station in the WLAN can associate with any
other unit and receive and transmit data freely(null authentication).
??
Shared Key
– Only stations using a shared key encryption are
allowed to associate.
The default authentication algorithm is
