v1.0, May 2006
Data Encryption
Select the data encryption that you want to use. The available options depend on the Network
Authentication setting above (otherwise, the default is None). The Data Encryption settings are
explained in the table below:
The Passphrases and Keys are explained below:
WPA and WPA2 with
RADIUS
This selection allows clients to use either WPA (with TKIP) or WPA2
(with AES). If selected, you must use TKIP + AES encryption and
configure the RADIUS Server Settings.
WPA-PSK
You must use TKIP encryption and enter the WPA passphrase
(Network key).
WPA2-PSK
WPA2 is a later version of WPA. Only select this if all clients support
WPA2. If selected, you must use AES encryption and enter the WPA
passphrase (Network key).
WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK
This selection allows clients to use either WPA (with TKIP) or WPA2
(with AES). If selected, you must use TKIP + AES encryption and enter
the WPA passphrase (Network key).
Table 2-2.
Data Encryption Settings
Name
Description
None
No encryption is used.
64 bits WEP
Standard WEP encryption, using 40/64 bit encryption.
128 bits WEP
Standard WEP encryption, using 104/128 bit encryption.
152 bits WEP
Proprietary mode that will only work with other wireless devices that
support this mode.
TKIP
This is the standard encryption method used with WPA.
AES
This is the standard encryption method for WPA2. Some clients may
support AES with WPA, but this is not supported by this Access Point.
TKIP + AES
This setting supports both WPA and WPA2. Broadcast packets use
TKIP. For unicast (point-to-point) transmissions, WPA clients use TKIP,
and WPA2 clients use AES.
