Authentication
The authentication methods supported by WL-520GU/GC include: Open, Shared

key, WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal, WPA-Auto-Personal (TKIP. AES. TKIP+AES),

WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Auto-Enterprise (TKIP. AES. TKIP+AES),

and Radius with 802.1x.

Open: This option disables authentication protection for wireless network.

Shared Key: This mode uses the WEP keys currently in use for authentication.
WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal, WPA-

Auto-Personal: WPA stands for WiFi-Protected Access. WPA provides two

security modes: WPA for enterprise network, and WPA-PSK for home and SOHO

users. For enterprise network, WPA uses the already existing RADIUS server for

authentication; for home and SOHO user, it provides Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for

user identification. The Pre-Shared Key consists of 8 to 64 characters.
Radius with 802.1x: Similar with WPA, this solution also uses RADIUS server

for authentication. The difference lays on the encryption mothods: WPA adopts

TKIP or AES encryption methods, while Radius with 802.1X does not provide

encryption.

When authentication and encryption are set, click Finish to save the settings and

restart the wireless router.
