Configuration Section 3 SECURITY Page - Recommended Configuration Options The following configuration options are highlighted in white on the SECURITY Page for easy reference. These are the options for which adjustments are recommended in order to establish a new wireless network with quality security measures. These options establish security as per Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) standards. If you intend to use wireless devices with the WA840 that are not capable of supporting WPA, then you should establish security measures that are backward compatible with the capabilities of those devices. Field WPA-PSK: (RECOMMENDED) WPA2-PSK: (RECOMMENDED) Description Enables WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) authentication. Requires a WPA Pass Phrase. It is recommended to enable WKPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK concurrently to support clients with mixed capabilities. • Selecting Enabled engages WPA-PSK. • Selecting Disabled disengages WPA-PSK. NOTES: 1) WPA-PSK requires a WPA Encryption method (below), and a WPA Pass Phrase (below). 2) WPA-PSK does not require the use of a RADIUS server. 3) WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK (below) can be enabled concurrently, to support devices with mixed capabilities. 4) WPA-PSK can be used concurrently with WEP Encryption, if needed for backward compatibility. WEP Encryption is enabled separately from WPA Encryption (below). FACTORY DEFAULT: Disabled RECOMMENDED SETTING: Enabled Enables WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key) authentication. Requires a WPA Pass Phrase.
