Note: Advanced Encryption Standard was adopted by the National Institute of
Standards and Technology in October of 2000. AES presents a new level in computer
networking security, especially important in wireless communications because wireless
circuits are easier to tap than their hard-wired counterparts. AES is more difficult to
crack than its predecessor Data Encryption Standard. SPEEDLAN 9000 products use an
AES 128-bit encryption key. Encryption Note! A Web browser must support
128 bit encryption in order to be used with SPEEDLAN 9000
Configurator. For more information about AES, visit http://www.nist.gov.
