RADIUS server, the RADIUS port (default is 1812) and the shared secret
from the RADIUS server. Please refer to “Authentication RADIUS Server”
setting below for RADIUS setting. The WPA algorithm is selected between

secret that is known only by the parties involved. To use WPA Pre-Shared

and “Pre-Shared Key” setting respectively. Please refer to “Pre-Shared Key
Format” and “Pre-Shared Key” setting below.
