Security

This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions,

included are WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared

key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your

wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use

the same security function, and are setup with the same security key.

ESSID Selection:

This broadband router support multiple ESSID, you could

select and set up the wanted ESSID.

Broadcast ESSID:

If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station

located within the coverage of this AP can discover this

AP easily. If you are building a public wireless network,

enabling

this

feature

is

recommended.

Disabling

“Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.

WMM:

Wi-Fi MultiMedia if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better

audio, video and voice in applications.

Encryption:

When you choose to disable encryption, it is very insecure to

operate ESR-9753.

Enable 802.1x Authentication

IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must use a valid account

to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The

authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates

users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication.

WEP Encryption

When you select 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key, you have to enter WEP keys to

encrypt data. You can generate the key by yourself and enter it. You can enter

four WEP keys and select one of them as a default key. Then AP can receive

any packet encrypted by one of the four keys.

Authentication Type:

There are two authentication types:

"Open System"

and

"Shared Key"

. Both AP and wireless client must be

configured with the same authentication type.

Key Length:

You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit.

The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but

the throughput will be lower.

Key Type:

You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or

Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the

WEP Key.

Default Key:

It’s the key used to encrypt data.

Key1 - Key4:

The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless

network. Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device.

64-bit WEP:

input 10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range)

or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys.

128-bit WEP:

input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range)

or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.

WPA Pre-Shared Key Encryption

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

a pre-shared key to authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during

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

frequently. So the encryption key is not easy to be cracked by hackers. This is

the best security available.

WPA-Radius Encryption

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. Press

<Apply>

button when you are done.
