Configuration through the web interface

 Data Encryption: Multiple encryption methods can be selected.

–

Use any available encryption method: enables all of the methods. The actual

method used will be determined by the capabilities of the wireless network.

–

Use the following selected method(s): Selects one or more encryption

methods.

Open System: No encryption is used over the wireless link. Open System

encryption is valid only with Open System and Shared Key authentication.

WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption is used over the wireless link.

WEP encryption can be used with any of the above authentication methods.

TKIP: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption is used over the

wireless link. TKIP encryption can be used with WPA-PSK and WPA with 802.1x

authentication.

CCMP: CCMP (AES) encryption is used over the wireless link. CCMP can be used

WPA-PSK and WPA with 802.1x authentication.

 WEP Keys

– Transmit Key: Specify the corresponding key of the encryption key that should be used

when communicating with wireless networks using WEP security.

This device allows up to four wireless keys to be set of either 64-bit or 128-bit

encryption. These keys allow the wireless network to traverse different wireless

networks without having to change the wireless key. Instead, only the transmit key

setting has to be changed to specify which wireless key to send.

– Encryption Keys: Specify 1 to 4 encryption keys to be used when communicating with

wireless networks using WEP security.

The encryption keys should be a set of 10 (64-bit) or 26 (128-bit) hexadecimal

characters. The encryption key should only contain the characters A-F, a-f, or 0-9.

Optionally, separator characters, such as '-', '_', or '.' may be used to separate the set

of characters.

 WPA PSK (Pre-Shared Key) Passphrase/Confirm: The passphrase that the Wi-Fi

network uses with WPA pre-shared keys. The pre-shared key is calculated using the

passphrase and the SSID. Therefore, a valid network name must have been previously

specified. In the Confirm field, reenter the passphrase.

 Username/Password/Confirm: The username and password combination used to

authenticate on the network when using these authentication methods: WEP with 802.1x

authentication, WPA with 802.1x authentication, or LEAP. In the Confirm field, reenter

the password.
