PENTAGRAM horNet Wi-Fi USB [P 6132-12]
• WPA 802.1x and WPA2 802.1x – IEEE 802.1x protocol is used for authentication and AES or
TKIP for encryption.
• WEP 802.1x – IEEE 802.1x protocol is used for authentication and WEP for encryption.
Data encryption – data encryption algorithm used by wireless network:
• Disabled (Open System) – network doesn’t use encryption and any wireless station can
connect to it.
• WEP (Open System, Shared Key) – first and least safe method of securing wireless network.
• TKIP (WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK) – base data encryption algorithm in WPA and WPA2 standards.
• AES (WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK) – newest and safest data encryption algorithm used in wireless
networks.
ASCII – if acquired WEP key is ASCII characters string (instead of hex), select this option and
enter key in field on the right side of PASSPHRASE option.
PASSPHRASE – selecting this box allows you to enter passphrase, based on which proper WEP
key will be generated. Passphrase can be acquired from wireless network administrator.
Key Length – length of key generated from passphrase.
Key Index (advanced) – select WEP key index which will be used.
Network key – enter encryption key for wireless network.
Confirm network key – reenter encryption key for wireless network.

Username – enter username for the EAP authentication.
Identity – enter Identity for the EAP authentication.
Password – enter Password for the EAP authentication.
Certificate – enable this option to use Client certificate for server authentication and then
select certificate from drop-down list.
