Advanced Security Configuration
There are numerous possible security settings. It is therefore important that you verify the appropriate
settings with your network administrator. If you enter the settings incorrectly, the Serial Device Server will
not be able to communicate on your network. The following table summarizes the wireless settings
required for each encryption mode and authentication type:

To use the above table, select the encryption mode and authentication type you are using. For example,
if you are using WPA2 with PSK authentication, you would need to set the WPA-PSK pre-shared key and
enable or disable the WPA Group Key. Likewise, if you are using WPA2 with 802.1X TLS authentication,
you would need to enter a User ID and Password, an Authentication Certificate, and a Private Key.
