ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP360 Configure WPA with RADIUS, WPA2 with RADIUS, and WPA & WPA2 with RADIUS WPA, WPA2, and WPA & WPA2 security requires RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication, so you also need to define RADIUS server settings. For information about RADIUS servers, see Configure RADIUS Server Settings on page 51.

Table 12. WPA with RADIUS, WPA2 with RADIUS, and WPA & WPA2 with RADIUS Settings Field TKIP Descriptions Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the standard encryption method used with WPA. You can also use TKIP with WPA2. AES Note: TKIP provides only legacy (slower) rates of operation. NETGEAR recommends WPA2 authentication with AES encryption if you want to use the 11n rates and speed. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the standard encryption method used with WPA2. Note: Although some wireless clients might support AES with WPA, the WNDAP360 wireless access point does not support WPA with AES. TKIP + AES The TKIP + AES encryption method is supported both for WPA and WPA2. Broadcast packets use TKIP. For unicast (point-to-point) transmissions, WPA clients use TKIP, and WPA2 clients use AES. For the WPA & WPA2 mixed mode, TKIP + AES is the only supported data encryption method. Wireless Configuration and Security 49

TKIP
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the standard encryption method used with WPA. You
can also use TKIP with WPA2.
Note:
TKIP provides only legacy (slower) rates of operation. NETGEAR recommends WPA2
authentication with AES encryption if you want to use the 11n rates and speed.
AES
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the standard encryption method used with WPA2.
Note:
Although some wireless clients might support AES with WPA, the WNDAP360 wireless
access point does not support WPA with AES.
TKIP + AES
The TKIP + AES encryption method is supported both for WPA and WPA2. Broadcast packets
use TKIP. For unicast (point-to-point) transmissions, WPA clients use TKIP, and WPA2 clients
use AES. For the WPA & WPA2 mixed mode, TKIP + AES is the only supported data encryption
method.
