Wireless > Wireless Security
The Wireless Security settings configure the security of
your wireless network. There are six wireless security
mode options supported by the Router: WPA Personal,
WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Personal, WPA2 Enterprise, RADIUS,
and WEP. (WPA stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access, which
is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WEP
stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy, while RADIUS stands
for Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service.) These
six are briefly discussed here. For detailed information
on setting up wireless security networks, refer to
“Chapter 2: Wireless Security.”
Wireless Security
Security Mode
Select the security method for your wireless network. If
you do not want to use wireless security, keep the default,
Disabled.
WPA Personal
NOTE: If you are using WPA or WPA2, each
device in your wireless network MUST use the
same WPA or WPA2 method and shared key, or
else the network will not function properly.
WPA Personal
Encryption WPA supports two encryption methods, TKIP
and AES, with dynamic encryption keys. Select the type of
algorithm, TKIP or AES. The default is TKIP.
Passphrase Enter a passphrase of 8-63 characters.
Key Renewal Enter a Key Renewal period, which instructs
the Router how often it should change the encryption
keys. The default Key Renewal period is 3600 seconds.
WPA Enterprise
This option features WPA used in coordination with a
RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the Router.)
WPA Enterprise
Encryption WPA supports two encryption methods, TKIP
and AES, with dynamic encryption keys. Select the type of
algorithm, TKIP or AES. The default is TKIP.
RADIUS Server Enter the IP Address of the RADIUS
server.
RADIUS Port Enter the port number of the RADIUS
server. The default value is 1812.
Shared Key Enter the key shared between the Router
and the server.
Key Renewal Enter a Key Renewal period, which instructs
the Router how often it should change the encryption
keys. The default Key Renewal period is 3600 seconds.
