Authenticati
on Mode

OPEN

(Option: OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK, WPANONE)
An authentication mode defines the procedure that the 802.11 device uses when
it authenticates and associates with an access point.
•OPEN : Specifies IEEE 802.11 Open System authentication.
•SHARED : Specifies IEEE 802.11 Shared Key authentication that uses a
preshared WEP key.
•WPA-PSK : Specifies WPA security. Authentication is performed between the
supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802.1X. Encryption keys are dynamic
and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and
authenticator.
•WPA2-PSK : Specifies WPA2 security. Authentication is performed between the
supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802 1X. Encryption keys are dynamic
and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and
authenticator.
•WPA-NONE : Specifies WPA security. Specifies the use of a preshared key
without IEEE 802.1X authentication. Encryption keys are static and are derived
through the preshared key. This mode is applicable only to ad hoc network
types.

Encryption
Type

NONE

(Option: NONE, WEP, TKIP, AES)
Encryption modes define the set of cipher suites that can be enabled on the
802.11 device.
•NONE : Not used.
•WEP : Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the RC4-based algorithm specified in
the IEEE 802.11 specification.
•TKIP : Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the RC4-based cipher suite
based on the algorithms defined in the WPA and IEEE 802.11i specifications.
•AES : The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) defines an encryption
algorithm in FIPS PUB 197.

Key Index

1

Selects the index of the key to be used from the created keys.
(Option: 1, 2, 3 and 4)

Key

None

Selects WEP 64-bit (Enter a Hex Key value directly).
(Example: 3132333435)
Selects WEP 128-bit (Enter a Hex Key value directly)
(Example: 31323334353637383940414243)

Password

None

Password for the TKIP encryption type.
(Up to 64 bytes)

Connection
Type

DHCP

Sets an IP address type in a wireless network.
(Option: DHCP, Static IP)
•DHCP : Assign a dynamic IP address through a DHCP server.
•Static IP : Specify an IP address manually.

IP Address

192.168.1.72

Sets an IP address of a wireless network.
If the line Type is Static IP, a user can enter an IP address directly. If line type is
DHCP, the current IP address is displayed. In DHCP type, the address cannot
be changed.
