Advanced Security Configuration
There are numerous possible security settings. It is therefore important that you verify the appropriate
settings with your network administrator. If you enter the settings incorrectly, the SX-560 will not be able
to communicate on your network. The following table summarizes the wireless settings required for each
encryption mode and authentication type:

To use the above table, select the encryption mode and authentication type you are using. For example,
if you are using WPA2 with PSK authentication, you would need to set the WPA-PSK pre-shared key and
enable or disable the WPA Group Key. Likewise, if you are using WPA2 with 802.1X TLS authentication,
you would need to enter a User ID and Password, an Authentication Certificate, and a Private Key.
The following is a description of the authentication settings used by the SX-560:
Encryption Mode
The possible SX-560 wireless encryption modes include:
 64 and 128 bit WEP. These are available for basic WIFI compatibility. Because of known
security issues, WEP should be avoided if possible.
