AirLive N.TOP User’s Manual 28

Key Length: The N.TOP offers 64bit and 128 bit for WEP key length. The
longer the Key Length, the more secure the encryption is.

Key Format: 2 types are available: ASCII and HEX. ASCII is a string of ASCII
code including alphabetical characters, space, signs and numbers (i.e.
“airlivepass12”). HEX is a string of 16-bit hexadecimal digits (0..9, a, b, c, d, e, f).

All wireless devices on the network must match the exact key length and Key type.

Some Wireless clients only allow HEX type for WEP.

WPA(TKIP), WPA(AES), WPA Mixed

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) introduces the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)

that provides added security. WPA2 adds full support for 802.11i standard and the

CCMP (AES Encryption). The WPA Mixed tries to authenticate wireless clients using
both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.

Pre-Shared Key Format: You can select between Passphrase(ASCII) or HEX
format. Please select Passphrase if you are not sure what to use.
