Appendix
WPA - Wi-Fi Protected Access authorizes and authenticates users onto the
wireless network. WPA uses stronger security than WEP and is based on a
key that changes automatically at a regular interval. This mode requires a
RADIUS server in the network.
WPA-PSK - Pre-Shared Key mode means that the wireless client and the
router must have the same passphrase in order to establish the wireless
connection. A RADIUS server is not required with PSK.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to
improve upon the security features of WEP. The technology is designed to
work with existing Wi-Fi products that have been enabled with WEP (i.e., as a
software upgrade to existing hardware), but the technology includes two
improvements over WEP:
1.) Improved data encryption through Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)
2.) User authentication using Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) via
RADIUS
Note that WPA is an interim standard that will be replaced with the IEEE’s
802.11i standard upon its completion.
