WPA-Radius
is an acronym for Wi-Fi Protected Access - Radius (802.1X authentication server). WPA was designed to
enhance the security of wireless networks. There are two flavors of WPA: enterprise and personal. Enterprise is meant
for use with an IEEE 802.1X authentication server, which distributes different keys to each user. Personal WPA utilizes
less scalable 'pre-shared key' (PSK) mode, where every allowed computer is given the same passphrase. In PSK
mode, security depends on the strength and secrecy of the passphrase. The design of WPA is based on a Draft 3 of
the IEEE 802.11i standard (Wikipedia)
WPS
is an acronym for Wi-Fi Protected Setup. It is a standard for easy and secure establishment of a wireless home
network. The goal of the WPS protocol is to simplify the process of connecting any home device to the wireless
network (Wikipedia).
WTR
is an acronym for Wait To Restore. This is the time a fail on a resource has to be 'not active' before restoration
back to this (previously failing) resource is done.
