5.3 Security and Authentication
The Samsung W-EP AP/APC supports the security and authentication function defined in
the IEEE 802.11-based wireless LAN security standard and its main mechanism is as
follows:
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 1 (WPA1), Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 2 (WPA2)
Authentication type: Pre-Shared Key (PSK), 802.1X
Encryption type: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), AES-CCMP
When a new WLAN is added, the initial WLAN security configuration becomes all
disabled. Therefore, an operator must configure the security function.

initialize the security configuration.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1# security
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# setDefault
