“WPA-shared key” (for an infrastructure network) or “WPA-None”
(enables WPA security for your ad hoc network) requires users to
select the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP or AES and
enter a set of shared key.
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater
security than the standard WEP security.
AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
wireless network.
Key – Enter 8 to 63 digits of ASCII format to be the key for the
authentication within the network.
When you finish configuring the wireless security, click “Save &
Next” to confirm the configuration.
