Authentication mode:
You may select one of the following authentications to secure
your wireless network: Open, Shared, Auto, WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2,
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK, or WPA /WPA2.
z
Open
Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is an
authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the MAC
address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router containing a
success or failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the client's MAC
address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router configuration.
z
Shared
Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the
authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared key is
manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of shared key
authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN environments.
z
Auto
The AP will Select the Open or Shared by the client’s request automatically.
z
WPA-PSK
Select Encryption and Pre-share Key Mode
If you select HEX, you have to fill in 64 hexadecimal (0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B…F) digits.
If you select ASCII, the length of pre-share key is from 8 to 63.
Fill in the key, Ex 12345678
z
WPA
Check Box was used to switch the function of the WPA. When the WPA function is
enabled, the Wireless user must
authenticate
to this router first to use the Network
service. RADIUS Server IP address or the 802.1X server’s domain-name.
