 WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access): For s tronger wireles s s ecurity than W EP, choos e

this option. The encryption for WPA will us e TKIP and also CCMP if required. The

authentication can be a pre-shared key (PSK), Enterpris e mode with RADIUS

server, or both . Note that W PA does not s upport 802.11n data rates ; is it

appropriate for legacy 802.11 connections .

 WPA2: this s ecurity type us es CCMP encryption (and the option to add TKIP

encryption) on either PSK (pre-s hared key) or Enterpris e (RADIUS Server)

authentication.

 WPA + WPA2: this us es both encryption algorithms , TKIP and CCMP. WPA

clients will us e TKIP and WPA2 clients will us e CCMP encryption algorithms.

the strongest security that it supports . This mode allows legacy devices that only

support W PA2 keys (s uch as an older wireles s printer) to connect to a s ecure AP

where all the other wireles s clients are us ing W PA2.
