3. Basic Configuration


WPA-PSK-AUTO tries to authenticate wireless clients using WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK.

Pre-shared Key: This is an ASCII string with 8 to 63 characters. Please make sure that
both the WHA-5500CPE and the wireless client stations use the same key.

Encryption Type: There are two encryption types TKIP and CCMP (AES). While CCMP
provides better security than TKIP, some wireless client stations may not be equipped with
the hardware to support it. You can select Both to allow TKIP clients and CCMP clients to
connect to the Access Point at the same time.

Group Rekey Interval: A group key is used for multicast/broadcast data, and the re-key
interval is time period that the system will change the group key periodically. The shorter
the interval is, the better the security is. The default is 300 sec.
