method for data encryption.

WEP: 802.1x Authentication is enabled and the RADIUS Server will proceed to

check the 802.1x Authentication, and make the RADIUS server to issue the WEP

key dynamically. You can select WEP 64bits or WEP 128bits for data encryption.

WPA (TKIP) / WPA (AES): WPA-RADIUS authentication use WPA (Wi-Fi Protect

Access) data encryption for 802.1x authentication. WPA is an encryption standard

proposed by WiFi for advance protection by utilizing a password key (TKIP) or

certificate. It is more secure than WEP encryption.

WPA2-AES / WPA2-Mixed: The two most important features beyond WPA to

become standardized through 802.11i/WPA2 are: pre-authentication, which enables

secure fast roaming without noticeable signal latency. Pre-authentication provides a

way to establish a PMK security association before a client associates. The

advantage is that the client reduces the time that it's disconnected to the network.
