Chapter 7 Wireless LAN Table 28 Network > Wireless LAN > Security: WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK LABEL DESCRIPTION Encryption Type Select TKIP to enable Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) security on your wireless network. Use this for WPA-PSK security mode and if the other access points on your network support do not have an AES option. If you select this, IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices cannot associate with the ZyXEL Device. Select AES to enable Advanced Encryption System (AES) security on your wireless network. AES provides superior security to TKIP. Use AES for WPA2-PSK security mode or if the other access points on your network support it. Also select this if you have IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices that associate with the ZyXEL Device. Apply Reset Select TKIPAES MIX to allow both TKIP and AES types of security in your wireless network. Use this WPA2-PSK security mode that you want to make WPA compatible. Click this to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device. Click this to reload the previous configuration for this screen. 7.3.4 WPA/WPA2 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. The WPA security mode is a security subset of WPA2. It requires the presence of a RADIUS server on your network in order to validate user credentials. This encryption standard is slightly older than WPA2 and therefore is more compatible with older devices. 114 FSG2200HNU User's Guide
