There are two levels of WPA. The “Group Key Interval,” “Server IP Address,”
“Port,” and “Secret” text boxes, along with the “802.1x” radio button, are enter-
prise network specific, and should only be accessed by an information systems
professional. See “WEP+802.1x” on the previous page for more information.
“PSK String” is for home network security. To set up a PSK (Pre-Shared Key),
click in the circle next to PSK String, then enter 8-63 alphanumeric characters
in the text box. All wireless-enabled devices must support WPA and know the
PSK to join the network.
Wireless MAC Authentication
Selecting Wireless MAC Authentication in the “Wireless Settings” screen gener-
ates the “Wireless MAC Authentication” screen.
This feature allows the user to control the wireless LAN network by denying or
allowing wireless access by specifying the MAC address of the wireless client(s)
allowed or denied access on the wireless network.
After changing settings, click Next or Back to continue, or Save and Restart to
make all changes permanent.
