DESCRIPTION

Encryption

Method

Select 802.1X to configure authentication of wireless stations and encryption key

management.

Note: WPA, WPA2 and IEEE 802.1x wireless security are not

available when you use Bridge or AP+Repeater mode. You
can only use WEP keys to encrypt traffic between APs.

Data Encryption

Select None to allow wireless stations to communicate with the access points

without using dynamic WEP key exchange.
Select 64 bits WEP, 128 bits WEP or 152 bits WEP to enable data encryption.
Up to 32 stations can access the device when you configure dynamic WEP key

exchange.

Passphrase

If you selected 64-bit or 128-bit WEP, you can enter a “passphrase” (password

phrase) of up to 32 case-sensitive printable characters and click Generate to have

the device create four different WEP keys.
