Data Encryption
. The available options depend on the network authentication setting
selected (see
Table 2-1
); otherwise, the default is
None
. The Data Encryption settings are
explained in the follokwing table:
Table 2-2. Data Encryption Settings
Data Encryption Type
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 and WPA2.
AES
This is the standard encryption method for WPA2.
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.
WPA with RADIUS
You must configure the RADIUS server settings to use this option.
WPA2 with RADIUS
(WPA2 is a later version of WPA.)
Select this only if all clients support WPA2. If selected, you must use
AES encryption and configure the RADIUS server settings.
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 or TKIP + AES encryption and enter the WPA
passphrase (network key).
WPA2-PSK
(WPA2 is a later version of WPA )
Select this only if all clients support WPA2. If selected, you must use
AES and TKIP + 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).
a. All options are available if you are using Access Point mode. In other modes (for example, Repeater or Bridge) some
options might be unavailable.
