Authentication

You MUST select the option to match the Wireless LAN
you wish to join. The available options are:
z

Open: Broadcast signals are not encrypted. This

method can be used only with no encryption or with
WEP.

z

Shared: Broadcast signals are encrypted using WEP.

This method can only be used with WEP.

z

LEAP: Light Extensible Authentication Protocol is a

pre-EAP, Cisco-proprietary protocol. If selected, you
have to enter the identity, password and domain name
of your computer.

z

WPA: This version of WPA requires a Radius Server

on your LAN to provide the client authentication
according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions
are encrypted using the WPA standard.

z

WPA-PSK: PSK means "Pre-shared Key". You must

enter this Passphrase value; it is used for both
authentication and encryption.

z

WPA2: This version of WPA2 requires a Radius Server

on your LAN to provide the client authentication
according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions
are encrypted using the WPA2 standard.

z

WPA2-PSK: This is a further development of

WPA-PSK, and offers even greater security. You must
enter this Passphrase value; it is used for both
authentication and encryption.

z

WPA None: If selected, you can only set encryption

and WPA-Preshared Key settings.

Encryption

The available options depend on the Authentication
method selected above. The possible options are:
z

None: No data encryption is used.

z

WEP: If selected, you must enter the WEP data shown

below. This WEP data must match the Access Point or
other Wireless stations.

z

AES, TKIP: These options are available with

WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA and WPA2. Select the
correct option.

Use 802.1x

This setting only takes effect when using WPA or WPA2
mode. If enabled, click the 802.1x tab to configure the
related settings.
