EP - Accepts only WEP clients and the encryption key should
PA/PSK or WPA2/PSK or Mixed (WPA+WPA2)/PSK -
ccepts only WPA clients and the encryption key should be
ntered in PSK. The WPA encrypts each frame transmitted from
he radio using the key, which either PS
ntered manually in this field below or automatically negotiated
ia 802.1x authentication.
EP/802.1x - The built-in RADIUS client feature enables
igorAP 800 to assist the remote dial-in user or a wireless
tation and the RADIUS server in performing mutual
uthentication. It enables centralized remote access
uthentication for network management.

uthentication. Select WPA, WPA2 or Auto as WPA mode.
PA/802.1x - The WPA encrypts each frame transmitted from
he radio using the key, which either PS
ntered manually in this field below or automatically negotiated

PA2/802.1x - The WPA encrypts each frame transmitted
rom the radio using the key, which either PSK (Pre-Shared
ey) entered manually in this field below or automatically
egotiated via 802.1x authentication.
WPA Algorithms
elect TKIP, AES or TKIP/AES as the algorithm for WPA. Such
eature is available for WPA2/802.1x, WPA/802.1x,
PA/PSK or WPA2/PSK or Mixed (WPA+WPA2)/PS
ither 8~63 ASCII characters, such as 012345678..(or 64
exadecimal digits leading by 0x, such as "0x321253abcde...").
uch feature is available for WPA/PSK or WPA2/PSK or
ixed (WPA+WPA2)/PSK mode.
Key Renewal Interval
PA uses shared key for authentication to the network.
owever, normal network operations use a different encryption
ey that is randomly generated. This randomly generated key
hat is periodically replaced. Enter the renewal security time

ecurity but lower performance. Default is 3600 seconds. Set 0
o disable re-key. Such feature is available for
