Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G VPN Broadband Router
The Wireless Tab - Wireless Security
Wireless-G VPN Broadband Router
The Wireless Tab - Wireless Security
The Wireless Security settings configure the security of your wireless network. There are four wireless security
mode options supported by the Router: WPA Pre-Shared Key, WPA RADIUS, RADIUS, and WEP. (WPA stands for Wi-
Fi Protected Access, which is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WEP stands for Wired Equivalent
Privacy, while RADIUS stands for Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service.) These four are discussed here.
Select the appropriate security mode for your network. For detailed instructions on configuring wireless security
for the Router, turn toAppendix B: Wireless Security.
WPA Pre-Shared Key. WPA gives you one encryption method, TKIP, with dynamic encryption keys. Select TKIP or
AES from the WPA Algorithm drop-down menu. Enter a WPA Shared Key of 8-32 characters. Then enter the Key
Renewal Timeout period, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.
When you have finished making changes to the screen, click the Save Settings button to save the changes, or
click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes. Help information is shown on the right-hand side of a
screen. For additional information, click More.
WPA RADIUS. This option features WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used
when a RADIUS server is connected to the Router.) Enter the RADIUS servers IP address. Select TKIP or AES from
the WPA Algorithm drop-down menu. Enter the RADIUS servers port number, along with the Shared Secret key,
which is the key shared between the Router and the server. Last, enter the Key Renewal Timeout period, which
instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.
When you have finished making changes to the screen, click the Save Settings button to save the changes, or
click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes. Help information is shown on the right-hand side of a
screen. For additional information, click More.
