Wireless Network Security
Security As a security measure, enable WEP, WPA, or
802.11i/vWPA2 on the XPress DR+W. WPA and
WPA2/802/11i are not available when Adhoc is the network
type. By default, wireless security is disabled.
Note: The 802.11i/vWPA2 mode complies with the Robust
Secure Network specified in the IEEE standard 802.11i. It
enables the AES-based strong CCMP encryption.
WEP Options
Authentication Select an authentication scheme (Open/None or Shared)
from the drop down menu.
Encryption Select the encryption type (64 bits or 128 bits for WEP) from
the pull-down menu. 64 bits is the default encryption for WEP.
Key Type Select the key type (Hex or Passphrase).
Key and Retype Key If the selected key type is Hex: Enter the Encryption Key
as a hexadecimal value according the following guidelines:
Valid Hex alphanumeric characters are 0-9 and A-F.
64 Bit Hex = 5 Bytes represented as xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Example: 01-A3-47-E5-C9
128 Bit Hex = 13 Bytes represented as xx-xx-xx-xx-
xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Example:
A1-B2-C3-E4-D5-F6-98-74-B7-65-A8-D3-F2
If the selected key type is Passphrase: Enter the key as a
string. A passphrase is a sentence that is translated into hex
by a hashing algorithm.
Example: My dog has spots and likes to chase cats.
A passphrase of more than 20 characters is recommended.
Maximum length is 63 characters, including spaces and
punctuation characters.
Passphrase input is not the same as ASCII input. The
passphrase input is safer because it has up to 63 chars. ASCII
input has a maximum of 5 (WEP64) or 13 (WEP128)
characters and limits the number of key combinations.
WPA Options
Authentication Select Pre-Shared Keys from the drop-down list.
Encryption Select the encryption type from the pull-down menu. TKIP is
the default encryption for WPA.
Key Type Select the key type (Hex or Passphrase).
Key Enter the Encryption Key in hexadecimal value if Hex is
selected as the key type. Enter the key as a string if
Passphrase is selected as the key type. Passphrase input is
not the same as ASCII input.
A passphrase of more than 20 characters is recommended.
Spaces and punctuation characters are permitted.
