VPN Virtual Private Network. Logical links, called tunnels, are established iva existing
unsecured networks. The end points of these links (“tunnel ends”) and the
devices behind them can be thought of as a separate, logical network. A very
high level of security against tapping and tampering can be achieved if data
transmission via tunnels is encrypted and the stations in this logical network
first authenticate each other.

Web- In-
Is opened using a browser. It contains the data and functions to be able, for

WEP: Wired Equivalent Encryption is the first encryption standard for WLAN networks
and depends on the RC4 algorithm. For this function the static keys have to
inscribe in every station.
WLAN: Wireless Local Area Network is a network of clients which are able to connected
with each other or to an access point by radio communication.
WPA: Encryption mode which is used as a workaround from WEP to WPA2. Compared
to WEP this one is enhanced with a dynamic encryption named TKIP.
