WPA/WPA2
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)/Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2)
combines Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES) mechanisms. It provides dynamic key
encryption and mutual authentication service. With TKIP, WPA/
WPA2 uses 48-bit initialization vectors, calculates an 8-byte
message integrity code, and generates an encryption key
periodically. For authentication, it allows you to use Pre-shared
Key (PSK) authentication among users in a SOHO network.
Notes: 1. WPA2 is backwords-compatible with WPA.
2. The Wireless AP will automatically reboot enabling
your new settings.
