Authentication
Type
Link authentication method, which can be:
•
Open-System—No authentication. With this authentication mode enabled, all the
clients will pass the authentication.
•
Shared-Key—The two parties must have the same shared key configured for this
authentication mode. You can select this option only when WEP encryption mode is
used.
•
Open-System and Shared-Key—You can select both open-system and shared-key
authentication.
Cipher Suite
Encryption mechanisms supported by the wireless service, which can be:
•
CCMP—Encryption mechanism based on the AES encryption algorithm.
•
TKIP—Encryption mechanism based on the RC4 algorithm and dynamic key
management.
•
CCMP and TKIP—You can select both CCMP and TKIP encryption.
Security IE
Wireless service type (IE information carried in the beacon or probe response frame):
•
WPA—Wi-Fi Protected Access, a security mechanism before the 802.11i protocol.
•
WPA2—Security mechanism defined in 802.11i, also known as the Robust Security
Network (RSN) security mechanism, which is more secure than WEP and WPA.
•
WPA and WPA2—You can select both WPA and WPA2.
Encryption
WEP
•
wep40—WEP40 key option.
•
wep104—WEP104 key option.
•
wep128—WEP128 key option.
Key ID
Configure the key index, which can be:
•
1—Key index 1.
•
2—Key index 2.
•
3—Key index 3.
•
4—Key index 4.
There are 4 static keys in WEP. The key index can be 1, 2, 3 or 4. The key corresponding
to the specified key index will be used for encrypting and decrypting broadcast and
multicast frames.
Key Length
Key length.
•
For wep40, the key is a string of 5 alphanumeric characters or a 10-digit hexadecimal
number.
•
For wep104, the key is a string of 13 alphanumeric characters or a 26-digit
hexadecimal number.
•
For wep128, the key is a string of 16 alphanumeric characters or a 32-digit
hexadecimal number.
WEP Key
Configure the WEP key.
