Wireless Network Security
Security
None: No encryption: no security.
WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy: basic security
WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access: high security (only
available in infrastructure networks).
Authentication
WEP: Open / None: no authentication / Shared:
shared key authentication (not recommended
as it offers a security vulnerability).
WPA: Pre Shared Key (PSK).
Encryption Length of encryption key.
WEP: 64 bit: offers only low security
128 bit: recommended.
WPA: TKIP or TKIP+WEP.
Key Type
Hex: Enter the key in hex format (for 128 bit key
enter 26 characters, for 64 bit key enter 10
characters)
Passphrase (ASCII): Passphrase (ASCII): Enter the key in ASCII
format (for 128 bit key enter 13 characters, for
64 bit key enter 5 characters).
Key Type the key which will be used for encryption
of the data in the Wireless Network WPA: 8 …
63 characters.
Retype Key Must be the same key as above to verify that
the key has not been mistyped.
Advanced Settings
Auto fallback
Enabled: The best working data rate is used. As quality
of data transmission deteriorates with distance
data transmission rate (TxDataRate) is
decreased to keep the connection alive.
Disabled: The connection drops when transmission
quality is not sufficient for that data rate any
more.
TxDataRate Datarate for transmission (only available if
Auto fallback is not enabled). The higher the
data rate the shorter is the distance for a stable
connection to the VCI.
MTU Size Maximum Transfer Unit Size: TCP Parameter,
only used by Network Administrators.
