2.4.3.5 WPA Radius

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use an external

RADIUS server to authenticate wireless stations and provide the session key to encrypt

data during communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP(AES) to change the encryption key

frequently. This can improve security very much.

Parameters

Default

Description

WPA(TKIP)

TKIP can change the encryption key frequently

to enhance the wireless LAN security.

WPA2(AES)

This use CCMP protocol to change encryption

key frequently. AES can provide high level

encryption to enhance the wireless LAN security.

WPA2 Mixed

This will use TKIP or AES based on the other

communication peer automatically.

RADIUS Server IP address

2.5 QoS

The QoS can let you classify Internet application traffic by source/destination IP address

and port number. You can assign priority for each type of application and reserve

bandwidth for it. The packets of applications with higher priority will always go first.

Lower priority applications will get bandwidth after higher priority applications get

enough bandwidth. This can let you have a better experience in using critical real time

services like Internet phone, video conference

…

etc. All the applications not specified by

you are classified as rule name

“

Others

”

. The rule with smaller priority number has

higher priority; the rule with larger priority number has lower priority. You can adjust the

priority of the rules by moving them up or down.

Note: If the total assigned bandwidth of higher priority applications is larger than

the maximum bandwidth provided by the WAN port, the other applications will not

get any bandwidth.
