Brother HL-S7000DN - Authentication and Encryption Methods for an Enterprise Wireless Network

Wireless network terms and concepts

Note
• IEEE 802.11n does not support WEP or TKIP for the encryption method.
• If you want to connect to your wireless network using IEEE 802.11n, we recommend to choose AES.
Network Key 10
 Open system/Shared key with WEP
This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or hexadecimal format.
• 64 (40) bit ASCII:
Uses 5 text characters. e.g. “WSLAN” (this is case sensitive)
• 64 (40) bit hexadecimal:
Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data. e.g. “71f2234aba”
• 128 (104) bit ASCII:
Uses 13 text characters. e.g. “Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive)
• 128 (104) bit hexadecimal:
Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data. e.g. “71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa2ba”
 WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK and TKIP or AES
Uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.
Authentication and Encryption methods for an enterprise wireless network 10
An enterprise wireless network is a large network, for example using your machine in a business enterprise
wireless network, with IEEE 802.1x support. If you configure your machine in an IEEE 802.1x supported
wireless network, you can use the following authentication and encryption methods.
