Chapter 7 Wireless LAN Table 24 Wireless LAN > General: WPA(2)-PSK LABEL Pre-Shared Key DESCRIPTION The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same. The only difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common password, instead of user-specific credentials. Group Key Update Timer Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including spaces and symbols). The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA(2)-PSK key management) or RADIUS server (if using WPA(2) key management) sends a new group key out to all clients. The rekeying process is the WPA(2) equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the Group Key Update Timer is also supported in WPA(2)PSK mode. The ZyXEL Device default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes). 7.4.4 WPA(2) Authentication Use this screen to configure and enable WPA or WPA2 authentication; click the Wireless LAN link under Network to display the General screen.
