Configuring Wireless Security
The CK3 provides four types of security for your wireless network:
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
• Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2™)
• 802.1x
• WEP
This section explains how to configure wireless security on your CK3.
If you choose not to use security, see “Disabling Security” on
