4.5.3.2 WIRELESS – Security - WEP
WEP:
Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks defined in the
802.11b standard. WEP is designed to provide the same level of security as that of a wired LAN. WEP aims to
provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end
point to another.
±
Enable WEP Wireless Security:
Place a check to enable WEP Security.
±
Authentication Type:
Select the Authentication Type from the drop down manual. To provide a
certain level of security, the IEEE 802.11 standard has defined three types of authentication
methods,
“Open”
,
“Shared”
and
“Both”
.
;
Open:
The WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router does not perform any Authentication.
Open system keys are always authenticated at the device level. After authentication, data is
then encrypted between the gateway and the connected device. This is the weakest form of
security and should not be used for sensitive data.
;
Shared:
WEP shared key authentication. With
“Shared”
key
authentication, only those PCs
that possess the correct authentication key can join the network. Shared keys accept a string
of unencrypted data from a device. The gateway encrypts with a WEP key and sends back
the encrypted data to the attached device.
±
Encryption Key:
Select the level of encryption. The available WEP settings are 64 bits, 128 bits
and 256 bits. The higher the bit value on the encryption, the more secure the data transmission.
For 64 bit WEP, enter 10 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).
For 128 bit WEP, enter 26 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).
For 256 bit WEP, enter 58 Hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, A-F).

How To Configure WEP
:
To configure WEP data encryption, follow these steps:
1.
Log in to the WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router at its default LAN address of
with its default Username :
Admin
and default password :
Admin
.
2.
Click the WIRELESS configuration link in the main menu of the WL-8064ARM Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Router.
3.
Go to the Security page.
4.
Select the Wireless Security Level.
5.
Click Enable WEP Wireless Security.
6.
Select the Authentication Type.
7.
Select the Encryption Type ( 64 bits, 128 bits or 256 bits ).
8.
Enter the Encryption Keys. Manually enter hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or
A-F).
9.
Select the radio button for the key you want to make active. Be sure you clearly understand
how the WEP key settings are configured in your wireless adapter.
10.
Click
Apply
to complete the setting.
11.
To complete and save the setting, click
Save All
after clicking the
Apply
button.

4.5.3.3 WIRELESS – Security – 802.1x
802,1x:
IEEE 802.1X defines the architecture that contains three major components: Authenticator,
Supplicant, and Authentication Server.
±
Server IP Address:
This field is required. Enter the IP address of the Radius Server on your LAN.
±
Port:
Enter the port number used for connections to the Radius Server.
±
Secret:
Enter the Radius shared key. This key enables the WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+
Router to log in to the Radius server and must match the value used on the Radius server.
±
Group Key Interval:
Type a numeric value (In seconds) of the time lapse in changing the key in
the
“Group Key Interval”
box.
±
Apply:
Click
Apply
to complete the setting.
±
Cancel:
Click

4.5.3.4 WIRELESS – Security - WPA
WPA:
Wi-Fi Protected Access ( WPA ) is a specification of standards-based, interoperable security
enhancements that increase the level of data protection and access control for existing and future wireless
LAN systems.
WPA-PSK
. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption provides data security. The very strong
authentication along with dynamic per frame re-keying of WPA make it virtually impossible to compromise.
Because this is a new standard, wireless device driver and software availability may be limited.
Note:
Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on the client.
±
Group Key Interval:
Type a numeric value (In seconds) of the time lapse in changing the key in
the
“Group Key Interval”
box.
±
802.1x:
Click the radio button to enable 802.1x functionality and enter the IP Address, Port
Number and Secret Key of the RADIUS Server.
±
PSK String:
Click the radio button to enable PSK functionality and enter the PSK String.
±
Apply:
Click
Apply
to complete the setting.
