DES is the least strong and AES - 256 is the strongest. AES - 256 is the default. The SafeNet
SoftRemote Basic VPN Client for Windows requires either 3DES or AES - 256.
— DES - The Data Encryption Standard (DES) processes input data that is 64 bits wide,
encrypting these values using a 56 bit key. Faster but less secure than 3DES or AES.
— 3DES - (Triple DES) achieves a higher level of security by encrypting the data three times
using DES with three different, unrelated keys.
— AES - 128, - 192, or - 256. Most secure. Advanced Encryption Standard, a symmetric
128-bit block data encryption technique. It is an iterated block cipher with a variable block
length and a variable key length. The block length and the key length can be
independently specified to 128, 192 or 256 bits.The U.S government adopted the
algorithm as its encryption technique in October 2000, replacing the DES encryption it
used. AES works at multiple network layers simultaneously.
Once you have filled in the FVM318 settings, configure the wireless client accordingly.

64 or 128 bit WEP

When 64 Bit WEP or 128 Bit WEP is selected, WEP encryption will be applied.
