Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
WEP is the most basic form of wireless security. There are two variations of
WEP known as Open System and Shared authentication. Open System
allows for a two-way hand shake authentication whereas Shared
authentication allows for a four-way handshake before authentication is
completed.
Using WEP the user will be prompt to select one of the four key spaces and
then to enter a security key according to the strength specified.
Enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit encryption
keys
Enter 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit encryption keys

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)-Enterprise
WPA is the replacement for WEP (which is seen by many administrators as a
‘weak’ security method). There are two variations of WPA known as
WPA-EAP (Enterprise) and WPA- PSK (Personal).
When choosing to use WPA-EAP the user has to specify a Radius Server IP
Address, Radius Server Port and a Radius Key.
Click
Apply/Save
to save and activate the change.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)-Personal
When choosing to use WPA-PSK the user only has to specify a Pre-Shared
Key. Note that there is NO Radius Server settings required when configuring
WPA-PSK.
Enter the Group Key Interval and Encryption if needed.

vulnerabilities the WPA might encounter. There are also two variations of
WPA2 known as WPA2-EAP (Enterprise) and WPA2- PSK (Personal).
When choosing to use WPA2-EAP the user has to specify a Radius Server
IP Address, Radius Server Port and a Radius Key.

Mixed Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2/WPA)-Enterprise
Mixed WPA2/WPA-EAP provides the functionality of having wireless clients
running WPA2-EAP or WPA-EAP. It provides backwards compatibility from
WPA2 to WPA.
When choosing to use Mixed WPA2/WPA-EAP the user has to specify a
Radius Server IP Address, Radius Server Port and a Radius Key.
Click
Apply/Save
to save and activate the change.
Mixed Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2/WPA)-Personal
When choosing to use Mixed WPA2/WPA-PSK the user only has to specify a
Pre-Shared Key. Note that there is NO Radius Server settings required when
configuring Mixed WPA2/WPA-PSK.
Enter the Group Key Interval and Encryption if needed.
