Wireless Security: Simple Mode

Security Type:

This field may be switched between WEP, WPA-PSK, and Open. If WEP is
selected, the button to the right may be switched between 64 and 128.

WEP security requires that both a target WAP be identified and an encryption

method be implemented prior to establishing communication. (Refer to the
WEP Settings section on page 67 for further details.)

WPA-PSK security is designed for environments where is it desirable to use

WPA or WPA2, but an 802.1x authentication server is not available. PSK
connections are more secure than WEP and are simpler to configure since
they implement dynamic keys but share a key between the WAP and the
panel (client). (Refer to the WPA-PSK Settings section on page 69 for further
details.)

Open security does not utilize any encryption methodology, but requires an

SSID (alpha-numeric) entry. This entry must match the Network Name (SSID)
entry of the target WAP so the panel knows what device it is using to
communicate with the network. (Refer to the following Open Settings section
on page 67 for
further details.)
