Security
This page allows you to configure the Network Authentication. Here provides several
different modes of wireless security. You will have to enter proper information according
to the mode you select.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)/WPA2:
It must be used in conjunction with an authentication server such as RADIUS to provide
centralized access control and management. It can provide stronger encryption and
authentication solution than none WPA modes.
WPA2 is the second generation of WPA
security
WPA-PSK (WPA-Pre-Shared Key) /WPA2-PSK (WPA2-Pre-Shared Key):
It is useful for small places without authentication servers such as the network at home. It
allows the use of manually-entered keys or passwords and is designed to be easily set up
for home users.
WEP Encryption:
You can choose 64-bit or 128-bit according to your needs. If you choose Disabled, the
Network Keys will not be shown on this page. If selected, the data is encrypted using the key
before being transmitted. For example, if you set 128-bit in this field, then the receiving
station must be set to use the128 Bit Encryption, and have the same Key value too.
Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.

After proper configuration, click Apply to invoke the settings.
