` Wireless Security – Security Mode : WPA‐PSK, WPA2‐PSK, WPA‐PSK Mixed
`` Security Mode: Select WPA‐PSK, WPA2‐PSK, or WPA‐PSK Mixed from the drop‐down list if
your wireless network uses WPA pre‐shared key.
`` Encryption: Select TKIP, AES or Auto from the drop‐down list if your wireless network uses
this encryption. WPA (Wi‐Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the security
features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to work with existing
Wi‐Fi products that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides improved data encryption
through the Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing
algorithm and by adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven’t been
tampered with. AES is an even more advanced method of encryption which offers the highest
level of WPA/WPA2 security.
`` Passphrase: Specify a passphrase that is shared amongst the Access Points and clients.
`` Group Key Update Interval: Specify the number of seconds after which the Access Point will
probe the client for the passphrase.
