Encryption Type: There are two encryption types TKIP and CCMP (AES).
While CCMP provides better security than TKIP, some wireless client stations

may not be equipped with the hardware to support it. You can select “Both” to

allow TKIP clients and CCMP clients to connect to the Access Point at the
same time.

Group Rekey Interval: A group key is used for multicast/broadcast data, and
the re-key interval is time period that the system will change the group key

periodically. The shorter the interval is, the better the security is. The default
is 300 sec.

WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK-Auto: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) with Pre-Shared
Key (PSK) provides better security than WEP keys. It does not require a RADIUS server in

order to provide association authentication, but you do have to enter a shared key for the
authentication purpose. The encryption key is generated automatically and dynamically.

WPA2-PSK adds CCMP and AES encryption for even better security. WPA-PSK-AUTO

tries to authenticate wireless clients using WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK.
