SecuritySettings
Both sides (AP and Station) of the link must have the same security settings.
Device supports various authentication/encryption methods:
Open – no encryption.
WEP – 64bit and 128bit key.
Personal – preshared key encryption with WPA/WPA2 using AES or TKIP.
Enterprise – RADIUS server based authentication with WPA/WPA2 encryption using AES
or TKIP (requires configured RADIUS server).
UAM – Web browser based user authentication method. UAM authentication is available
only if Access Point is working in router mode. For UAM configuration details refer at the
respective chapter Universal Access Method (UAM).
By default there is no encryption enabled on the device:
Figure 27 – Security: Open
WEP encryption can be either 64bit or 128bit:
Figure 28 – Security: WEP Encryption
WEP passkey – specify the passkey, for the chosen WEP security:
For WEP 64bit encryption – 5 HEX pairs (e.g. aa:bb:cc:dd:ee), or 5 ASCII characters (e.g.
abcde);
For WEP 128bit encryption – 13 HEX pairs (e.g. aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff:gg:hh:00:11:22:33:44),
or 13 ASCII characters (e.g. abcdefghijklm);
To setup Personal WPA/WPA2 encryption, need to specify the pre-shared key and encryption with
chosen AES, TKIP or Auto method:
Figure 29 –Security: Private WPA/WPA2 Encryption
Passphrase – specify WPA or WPA2 passphrase [8-63 characters]. The passphrase will be
converted to key format, selected above.
Encryption – specify WPA/WPA2 encryption algorithm:
AES – APC will accept clients with passphrase encrypted with AES method only;
TKIP – APC will accept clients with passphrase encrypted with TKIP method only;
Auto – APC will accept clients with passphrase encrypted with both: AES and TKIP
methods;
