Authentication
Mode

You MUST select the option to match the Wireless LAN you wish
to join. The available options are:

Open System - Broadcast signals are not encrypted. This
method can be used only with no encryption or with WEP.

Shared Key - Broadcast signals are encrypted using WEP.
This method can only be used with WEP.

Auto Switch - This is another WEP system; it will select
either Open System or Shared Key as required.

WPA-PSK - PSK means "Pre-shared Key". You must enter
this Passphrase value; it is used for both authentication and
encryption.

WPA2-PSK - This is a further development of WPA-PSK,
and offers even greater security. You must enter this Pass-
phrase value; it is used for both authentication and
encryption.

WPA Radius - This version of WPA requires a Radius
Server on your LAN to provide the client authentication ac-
cording to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are
encrypted using the WPA standard.

WPA2 Radius - This version of WPA2 requires a Radius
Server on your LAN to provide the client authentication ac-
cording to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are
encrypted using the WPA2 standard.
