The following table describes the wireless LAN security labels in this screen.
7.2.4
WPA(2) Authentication
The WPA2 security mode is currently the most robust form of encryption for wireless networks. It
requires a RADIUS server to authenticate user credentials and is a full implementation the security
protocol. Use this security option for maximum protection of your network. However, it is the least
backwards compatible with older devices.

Security Mode
Select
WPA-PSK
or
WPA2-PSK
from the drop-down list box.
Pre-Shared Key
The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same. The only
difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common password,
instead of user-specific credentials.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive keyboard characters.

Select
Enable
to allow wireless devices using
WPA-PSK
security mode to connect to
your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries. The AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries supports WPA-PSK
and WPA2-PSK simultaneously. Otherwise, select

.
Group Key Update
Timer
The
Group Key Update Timer
is the rate at which the RADIUS
server sends a new
group key out to all clients.
Encryption
This field displays the encryption type for data encryption.
If you choose
WPA-PSK
as the security mode, the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries uses
TKIP
for data encryption.
If you choose
WPA2-PSK
as the security mode and enable WPA-PSK Compatible, the
AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries uses either TKIP and AES (
TKIPAES MIX
) for data
encryption.
If you choose
WPA2-PSK
as the security mode but disable WPA-PSK Compatible, the
AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries uses
AES
for data encryption.

The WPA security mode is a security subset of WPA2. It requires the presence of a RADIUS server
on your network in order to validate user credentials. This encryption standard is slightly older than
WPA2 and therefore is more compatible with older devices.

SSID
An SSID profile is the set of parameters relating to one of the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s BSSs.
The SSID (Service Set IDentifier) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless device is
associated.
This field displays the name of the wireless profile on the network. When a wireless client scans for
an AP to associate with, this is the name that is broadcast and seen in the wireless client utility.
Security
This field indicates the security mode of the SSID profile.
