DESCRIPTION
Security Level
Select
More Secure
to enable WPA(2)-PSK data encryption.
Security Mode
Select
WPA-PSK
or
WPA2-PSK
from the drop-down list box.
Pre-Shared Key
The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same. The only
difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common password,
instead of user-specific credentials.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive keyboard characters.

WPA-PSK Compatible
This field appears when you choose
WPA-PSK2
as the
Security Mode
.
Select

WPA-PSK
security mode to connect to
your Device. The Device supports WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK simultaneously. Otherwise,
select
Disable
.
Group Key Update
Timer
The
Group Key Update Timer
is the rate at which the RADIUS server sends a new
group key out to all clients.
Encryption
This field displays the encryption type for data encryption.
If you choose
WPA-PSK
as the security mode, the Device uses
TKIP
for data
encryption.
If you choose
WPA2-PSK
as the security mode and enable WPA-PSK Compatible, the
Device uses either TKIP and AES (
TKIPAES MIX
) for data encryption.
If you choose
WPA2-PSK
as the security mode but disable WPA-PSK Compatible, the
Device uses
AES
for data encryption.
5.2.4 WPA(2) Authentication
The WPA2 security mode is currently the most robust form of encryption for wireless networks. It
requires a RADIUS server to authenticate user credentials and is a full implementation the security
protocol. Use this security option for maximum protection of your network. However, it is the least
backwards compatible with older devices.
