Data Encryption.
The available options depend on the Network Authentication setting above
(otherwise, the default is None). The Data Encryption settings are explained in the
Table 2-2
below:
WPA with RADIUS
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, encryption must be TKIP + AES. The WPA passphrase
(Network key) must also be entered.
WPA2 with RADIUS
WPA2 is a later version of WPA. Only select this if all clients support
WPA2. If selected, you must use AES encryption, and configure the
RADIUS Server Settings Screen.
WPA and WPA2 with
RADIUS
This selection allows clients to use either WPA (with TKIP) or WPA2 (with
AES). If selected, encryption must be TKIP + AES, and you must also
configure the RADIUS Server Settings Screen.
a. All options are available if using Access Point mode. In other modes (for example, Repeater or
Bridge) some options may be unavailable.
Table 2-2. Data Encryption Settings
Type
Description
None
No encryption is used.
64 bits WEP
Standard WEP encryption using 40/64 bit encryption.
152 bits WEP
Proprietary mode that will only work with other wireless devices that
support this mode.
TKIP
Standard encryption method used with WPA.
AES
Standard encryption method for WPA2. Some clients may support AES
with WPA, but this is not supported by this access point.
TKIP + AES
Supports both WPA and WPA2. Broadcast packets use TKIP. For unicast
(point-to-point) transmission, WPA clients use TKIP; WPA2 clients use
AES.
