The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 16 Wireless Security: WPA-PSK

LABEL DESCRIPTION

Encryption Method Select WPA-PSK if you want to configure a pre-shared key but your wireless

clients don’t support WPA2.

Select WPA2-PSK if you want to configure a pre-shared key and your wireless

clients support WPA2.

Select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed if you want to configure a pre-shared key and

your wireless clients support either WPA or WPA2.

Pre-Shared Key The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same. The

only difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common

password, instead of user-specific credentials.

Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 ASCII characters (including spaces and

symbols). This field is case-sensitive.

Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the G-560.

6.16.4 WPA/WPA2/Mixed

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i standard. WPA2 (IEEE

802.11i) is a wireless security standard that defines stronger encryption, authentication and

key management than WPA. Key differences between WPA(2) and WEP are user

authentication and improved data encryption.
