DESCRIPTION
Choose WPA from the drop-down list box for TKIP encryption.
Choose WPA2 (AES) from the drop-down list box to use WPA2's AES
encryption.
Choose WPA2 Mixed from the drop-down list box to allow both TKIP or AES
encryption.
The Group Key Life Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA-PSK key
management) or RADIUS server (if using WPA key management) sends a new
group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA equivalent of
automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a
periodic basis. Setting of the WPA Group Key Update Timer is also supported
in WPA-PSK,WPA2-PSK mode. The P-330W default is 1800 seconds (30
minutes).
Choose the encryption type (TKIP or AES) for data encryption.
This field is only available if you selected WPA2 (AES) or WPA2 Mixed. Pre-
Authentication enables fast roaming by allowing the wireless client (already
connecting to an AP) to perform IEEE 802.1x authentication with another AP
before connecting to it.
