Field
Description
Data Encryption
When using WPA or WPA2 authentication, these WPA
encryption modes can be set: TKIP, AES, or TKIP + AES.
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) provides the strongest
encryption, while TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
provides strong encryption with improved compatibility. the
TKIP + AES mode allows both TKIP and AES-capable clients
to connect.
Format
Sets the format of key as hexadecimal digits or ASCII
character.
Pre-Shared Key
Sets the WPA/WPA2 Pre-Shared Key (PSK). This is either an
8-63 ASCII character string or 64 hexadecimal digits. This is
specified when the Network Authentication method is WPA-
PSK or WPA2-PSK.

Field
Description
WPA Group Rekey Interval
Sets the WPA Group Rekey Interval in seconds. Set to zero to
disable periodic rekeying.
Field of Mixed WPA-Enterprise/WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Enterprise
are similar.
Field Descriptions for WPA-Enterprise/WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Enterprise and
WPA2-Enterprise Page
Field
Description
Network Re-auth Interval
The re-authentication interval is the amount of time the
wireless router can wait before re-establishing authentication
with the CPE (WPA-Enterprise don’t have this field).
RADIUS Server IP Address
Sets the RADIUS server IP address to use for client
authentication
using
the
dotted-decimal
format

Field
Description
(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
RADIUS UDP Port
Sets the UDP port number of the RADIUS server. The default
is 1812.
RADIUS Shared Secret
Sets the shared secret for the RADIUS connection. The key is
a 0 to 255 character ASCII string.

Field Descriptions for the WEP Page
Field
Description
Encryption Mode
Select the use of Shared Key authentication in WEP protocol.
If select Open System , Shared Key authentication is optional.
If select Shared Key, the Shared Key authentication is
required for WEP.
Authentication Type
The CPE uses either the 64-bit or 128-bit key to encrypt the
challenge text and sends the encrypted text to the access
point. The access point will decrypt the encrypted text and
then compare the decrypted message with the original
challenge text. If they are the same, the access point will let
the CPE connect; if it doesn’t match, then the access point
does not let the CPE connect.
Key 1 – 4
Sets the static WEP keys when WEP encryption is enabled.
•
Enter 5 ASCII characters for a 64-bit key.
•
Enter 13 ASCII characters for a 128-bit key.
Default Transmission Key
Selects the transmission key when WEP encryption is
enabled.
802.1x encryption:
This is another type of authentication and is used on top of WEP. 802.1x Authentication
is a much stronger type of authentication than WEP. About field description you can refer
to tables above.
