4.2.7 Security Settings

Operation Mode -> Setup -> Security Settings
Security settings allow you to use encryption to secure your data from eavesdropping. You
can select different security policy to provide association authentication and/or data
encryption. The AirMax5N features various security policies including WEP, 802.1x,
WPA-RADIUS, WPA-PSK, WPA2-RADIUS, WPA2-PSK, and WPA-PSK. Please note not
all security policies are available in all operation modes. All wireless devices on the same
network must use the same security policy. We recommend using WPA-PSK or
WPA2-PSK whenever possible. For WDS Bridge, we recommend using AES encryption.

WEP

WEP Encryption is the oldest and most available encryption method. However, it is also
the least secure.

Select one of the WEP key for wireless network: There are total of 4 possible keys
for WEP encryption. You need to choose which key will be used for encryption. All
wireless devices on the same network have to use the same settings. We recommend
using WEP Key 1 as in default setting.

WEP Keys: Please enter the WEP keys used for encryption. You need to fill at least
the “Select WEP Key”. For example; if you choose “Select one of the WEP keys for the
wireless network
: Key 1” in the previous field, then it is necessary to fill WEP Key 1.
The restriction to the Key length is depending on the Key type you selected.
