Cipher Suite: AES is short for Advanced Encryption Standard, The AES cipher is specified as a number
of repetitions of transformation rounds that convert the input plain text into the final
output of ciphertext. Each round consists of several processing steps, including one that
depends on the encryption key. A set of reverse rounds are applied to transform
ciphertext back into the original plaintext using the same encryption key. TKIP is short
for Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm
and, by adding an integrity-checking feature, ensures that the keys haven’t been
tampered with.
Key Type Select the type of pre-shared key, you can select ASCII (8 or more alphanumerical
characters, up to 63), or Hex (64 characters of 0-9, and a-f).
Pre-shared Enter the information for pre-shared key; the format of the information shall according
to the key type selected. Pre-shared key can be either entered as a 256-bit secret in 64
HEX digits format, or 8 to 63 ASCII characters
Hawking recommends using WPA2-PSK w/ AES cipher suite as your default level of security.
Click Finish and the device will automatically restart and save your settings. After you have finished, you can
connect the device to your network via LAN2 to use this as a Router AP. You can add a network switch to LAN2 if
you need more Ethernet ports. Please change your computer IP address back to “Obtain an IP automatically”.
