Broadcast SSID
Hiding network name is necessary when you are in a wireless environment that may have potential
risk. By using this function, the STA cannot scan and find SGT-LD-5-23, so that a malicious attack
by some illegal STA can be avoided.
Network Authentication
Open: It allows any device to join the network, without performing any security check.
Shared Key: Data encryption and key are required for wireless authentication before association.
(Only available in BS and CPE mode).
WPA-PSK: It is a simplified WPA mode with no need for a specific authentication server. In this
so-called WPA Pre-Shared Key mode, all you have to do is pre-enter a key in each WLAN node -
this is a common method adopted in large and mid-sized enterprises and residential networks.
