User's Manual

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a

secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP

(Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000

packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This

ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast,

the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be

changed manually.)

WPA-PSK allows home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in

their network, access to WPA security. Utilizing the Pre-Shared Key mode of

WPA, the OUTDOOR BRIDGE will obtain a new security key every time it

connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your encryption

information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to

manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the

OUTDOOR BRIDGE and WPA-PSK, you will automatically receive a new key

every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communication.

Set Encryption to Open System

WEP auth method: Select Open System to communicate the key across the

network.

WEP mode: Select 64, 128 bits.

Key Type: 64 bit support WEP password 10 bit HEX(Hexadecimal digits consist

or the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F) code. 128 bit support WEP password 26

bit HEX code.( Note :Currently version does not support ASIC code.)

Valid Key: Select one of the keys in the Key table to be the active key.

Key Table: Enter up to four encryption keys here.
