4.1.6 Wireless Security

The wireless security settings configure the security of your wireless network. There are three wireless

security mode options supported by the WAP-6000: WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA. (WPA stands for Wi-Fi

Protected Access, which is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WEP stands for Wired

Equivalent Privacy.)

In Wireless Security page, you can configure the AP to work with No Security, WEP, WPA-PSK and

WPA security mode. Once you setup the AP to work in security mode, all wireless stations will also need

to have corresponding settings. System default setting is “No Security”.
