SSID.
Wireless Band

3.6.2 Security Settings
Select the desired option, and then enter the settings for the selected method.
The available options are:
· None - No security is used. Anyone using the correct SSID can connect to your
network.
· WEP - The 802.11b standard. Data is encrypted before transmission, but the
encryption system is not very strong.
· WPA-PSK - Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more
secure than WEP, and should be used if possible. The PSK (Pre-shared Key)
must be entered on each Wireless station. The 256Bit encryption key is derived
from the PSK, and changes periodically.
· WPA-802.1x - This version of WPA requires a Radius Server on your LAN to
provide the client authentication according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmis-
sions are encrypted using the WPA standard.
