Appendix B - Security Tab (Profile Management)
The Security Tab allows you to configure the W400-W500 Mini-PCI device to match the
security settings of the Wireless LAN network.
Select the appropriate security mode…
• Pre-Shared Keys – This mode is commonly referred to as WEP encryption, and
allows for setting of all four WEP keys. The pre-shared key selection also allows for
setting of a unique key which is used with higher forms of encryption such as AES.
• LEAP – This is CCX compliant feature that allows for authentication with Cisco
access points. This mode should only be used if your Wireless LAN requires LEAP
authentication
• Externally Managed 802.1X Keys – This security mode allows for dynamic
switching of encryption keys using 802.1X authentication. This mode should only be
used if your Wireless LAN requires 802.1X authentication.
• Disabled – Use this mode when there is no security authentication or encryption is
currently enabled on your Wireless LAN network.
