About Wireless Security
The computer provides five types of security for your wireless network:
Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2™)
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
802.1x
LEAP
WEP
This section explains how to configure wireless security on your
mobile computer. Intermec recommends that you implement WPA2
security using PSK (Personal) or 802.1X (Enterprise) key management
as appropriate.
You must use either Funk or Microsoft security to implement your
security solution. For details, see the next section,
“Choose Between
Microsoft and Funk Security.”
Intermec recommends that you
always implement WPA2 security using PSK (Personal) or 802.1X
(Enterprise) key management.
If you are using WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, or 802.1x security, this
section also assumes that your authentication server and
authenticators are properly configured.
Note:
Your security choice does not depend on your authentication
server. For example, you can choose Funk security if you use Microsoft
Active Directory® to issue certificates.
