WPA-Enterprise
This version of WPA requires a Radius Server on your LAN to provide the client
authentication according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are encrypted
using the WPA standard.
If this option is used:
• The Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server.
• Each user must have a "user login" on the Radius Server.
• Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the login data when
required.
All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA standard. Keys are automatically
generated, so no key input is required.
802.1x
This uses the 802.1x standard for client authentication, and WEP for data encryption.
If possible, you should use WPA-Enterprise instead, because WPA encryption is
much stronger than WEP encryption.
If this option is used:
• The Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server.
• Each user must have a "user login" on the Radius Server.
• Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the login data when
required.
• All data transmission is encrypted using the WEP standard. You only have to
select the WEP key size; the WEP key is automatically generated.
