Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) with Pre-Shared Key (PSK) provides better security than WEP
keys. It does not require a RADIUS server in order to provide association authentication, but
you do have to enter a shared key for the authentication purpose. The encryption key is
generated automatically and dynamically.
Pre-shared Key: This is an ASCII string with 8 to 63 characters. Please make sure that both
the 802.11A+G ACCESS POINT and the wireless client stations use the same key.
Encryption Type: There are two encryption types TKIP and CCMP (AES). While CCMP
provides better security than TKIP, some wireless client stations may not be equipped with the
hardware to support it. You can select Both to allow TKIP clients and CCMP clients to
connect to the Access Point at the same time.
Group Rekey Interval: A group key is used for multicast/broadcast data, and the rekey
interval is time period that the system will change the group key periodically. The shorter the
interval is, the better the security is. 60 seconds is a reasonable time, and it is used by default.
