Wireless Access Point User Guide

Authentication

Normally, you can leave this at “Automatic”, so that Wireless

Stations can use either method ("Open System" or "Shared

Key".).

If you wish to use a particular method, select the appropriate

value - "Open System" or "Shared Key". All Wireless stations

must then be set to use the same method.

Key Input

Select "Hex" or "ASCII" depending on your input method. (All

keys are converted to Hex, ASCII input is only for conven-

ience.)

Key 1.. Key 4

Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must have

the same key.

Passphrase

Use this to generate a key or keys, instead of entering them

directly. Enter a word or group of printable characters in the

Passphrase box and click the "Generate Key" button to auto-

matically configure the WEP Key(s). If encryption strength is

set to 64 bit, then each of the four key fields will be populated

with key values. If encryption strength is set to 128 bit, then

only the selected WEP key field will be given a key value.

Security Settings - WPA-PSK

Selecting the WPA-PSK option will result in a screen like the following.
