than the standard WEP security.

AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of

security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most

advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the

wireless network.

Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption

method to ensure the communication.

WPA Pre-Shared Key The WPA-PSK key can be from 8 to 64 characters and can be

letters or numbers. This same key must be used on all of the

wireless stations in the network.

WEP Key

(Key1 ~ Key4)

The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the

wireless network. There are two types of key length: 64-bit and

128-bit. Select the default encryption key from Key 1 to Key 4 by

selected the radio button.

Fill the text box by following the rules below.

64-bit – Input 10-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”

range) or 5-digit ASCII characters (including “a-z” and “0-9”) as

the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef“ or “test1”.

128-bit – Input 26-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”

range) or 13-digit ASCII characters (including “a-z” and “0-9”) as

the encryption keys. For example:

“01234567890123456789abcdef“ or “administrator”.

3.2.1.3 802.1x Setting-Certification

The IEEE 802.1X specification describes a protocol that can be used for authenticating both clients and

servers on a network. The authentication algorithms and methods are those provided by the Extensible

Authentication Protocol (EAP), a method of authentication that has been in use for a number of years

on networks that provide Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) support as many internet service providers and

enterprises do.

When an AP acting as an authenticator detects a wireless station on the LAN, it sends an EAP-Request

for the user's identity to the device. (EAP, or the Extensible Authentication Protocol, is an authentication

protocol that runs before network layer protocols transmit data over the link.) In turn, the device

responds with its identity, and the AP relays this identity to an authentication server, which is typically

an external RADIUS server.
