TKIP: To improve data encryption, Wi-Fi Protected Access utilizes its Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(TKIP). TKIP provides important data encryption enhancements including a re-keying method. Refer to
Security Overview for more information. Note: TKIP is enabled only when the checkbox for Cisco Client
eXtentions is selected.

Check this box to enable CKIP and TKIP data encryption and 802.1x LEAP authentication on the
Security Settings page.
WPA Key
Enter your network key (wireless security password) for your wireless network in the Network key field.
Make sure that the network key used matches the Windows network key.
Password:
● Enter a text phrase with at least 8 up to 63 characters in the pass phrase field.
WPA-Personal uses Wi-Fi Protected Access authentication. Pre Shared Key (WPA-PSK) mode does not
use an authentication server. WPA-PSK requires configuration of a pre-shared key (PSK). The data
encryption key is derived from the PSK.
802.1x MD5 - Open/None
MD5 authentication is a one-way authentication method that uses user names and passwords. This method does not support key management, but
does require a pre-configured key if data encryption is used.
