Security Mode Settings
1. Configure the following settings:
WPA Versions
Select the types of client stations you want to support:
WPA - If all client stations on the network support the original
WPA
but
none support the newer
WPA2
, then select WPA.
WPA2 - If all client stations on the network support
WPA2
, we suggest
using WPA2 which provides the best security per the
IEEE
802.11i
standard.
Both - If you have a mix of clients, some of which support
WPA2
and
others which support only the original
WPA
, select Both. This lets both
WPA and WPA2 client stations associate and authenticate, but uses
the more robust WPA2 for clients who support it. This WPA
configuration allows more interoperability, at the expense of some
security.
Enable pre-authentication
If for WPA Versions you select WPA2 or Both, you can enable pre-
authentication for
WPA2
clients.
Click Enable pre-authentication if you want
WPA2
wireless clients to
send pre-authentication packet. The pre-authentication information will
be relayed from the access point the client is currently using to the
target access point. Enabling this feature can help speed up
authentication for roaming clients who connect to multiple access
points.
This option does not apply if you selected WPA for WPA Versions
because the original
WPA
does not support this feature.
