Section 3 - Conguration
Wireless security is a key concern for any wireless network installed. Unlike any other networking method wireless networks will broadcast it’s presence for
anyone to connect to it. Today, wireless security has advanced to a level where it is virtually impenetrable.
There are mainly two forms of wireless encryption and they are called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). WEP was the rst
security method developed. It is a low level encryption but better than now encryption. WPA is the newest encryption standard and with the advanced WPA2
standard wireless networks have nally reach a point where the security is strong enough to give users the peace of mind when installing wireless networks.

WEP provides two variations called Open System and Shared Key.
Open System will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will return a success
message back to the wireless client. If the key does not match the one congured on the access point, the access point will deny the connection request from
the wireless client.
Shared Key will send a request to the access point and if the key used matches the one congured on the access point, the access point will send a challenge
to the client. The client will then again send a conrmation of the same key back to the access point where the access point will either return a successful or a
denial packet back to the wireless client.
