WPA Encryption

WiFi Protected Access was designed to provide improved data encryption, perceived as weak in
WEP, and to provide user authentication, largely nonexistent in WEP. There are two versions, WPA
and WPA2; both are supported by the Access Point. WPA includes the option of using a Pre-Shared
Key similar to WEP, or a RADIUS server can be used for verification. In addition, WPA2-Auto is

offered for user convenience.
