3.6 Wireless Security
The wireless security is to configure a secure connection between two wireless devices.
WH-9200AP provides WEP, 802.1x,
WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2,
WPA2-PSK, WPA-AUTO and
WPA-PSK-AUTO security policy.
WEP
WEP allows you to use data encryption to secure your data from being eavesdropped by
malicious people. It allows 3 types of key: 64 (WEP64), 128 (WEP128), and 152 (WEP152)
bits. You can configure up to 4 keys using either ASCII or Hexadecimal format.
Key Settings: The length of a
WEP64 key must be equal to 5
bytes, a WEP128 key is 13
bytes, and a WEP152 key is 16
bytes.
Key Index: You have to specify
which of the four keys will be
active.
Once you enable the WEP
function, please make sure that
both the WH-9200AP and the
wireless client stations use the
same key.
Some wireless client cards only allow Hexadecimal digits for WEP keys.
Please note that when configuring WEP keys, a WEP128 ASCII key looks like “This is a key”(13
characters), while a WEP128 Hex key looks like “546869732069732061206b6579”(26 HEX)
(hexadecimal notation are 0-9 and A-F).
