WPA Personal. Select the type of encryption, TKIP or AES, enter a Passphrase (pre-shared key) of 8-64
characters, and enter a Key Renewal period time between 0 and 99,999 seconds, which instructs the Router
or other device how often it should change the encryption keys.
WPA Enterprise. WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the Router or other device.) First, select the type of WPA encryption, TKIP or AES. Enter
the RADIUS server's IP Address and port number, along with a key shared between the device and the server.
Last, enter a Key Renewal period, which instructs the device how often it should change the encryption keys.
RADIUS. WEP used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS server is
connected to the Router or other device.) First, enter the RADIUS server's IP Address and port number, along
with a shared secret (authentication key) shared between the device and the server. Then, select a WEP key
and a level of WEP encryption, and either generate a WEP key through the Passphrase or enter the WEP key
manually. Then, select a Tx key.
Implementing encryption may have a negative impact on your network's performance, but if you are transmitting
sensitive data over your network, encryption should be used.
These security recommendations should help keep your mind at ease while you are enjoying the most flexible
and convenient technology Linksys has to offer.
