Authentication
The authentication methods supported by RT-N15 include: Open, shared key,
WPA-PSK, WPA, and Radius with 80.211x.
Open:
This option disables authentication protection for wireless network. Under
Open mode, any IEEE802.11b/g client can connect to your wireless network.
Shared:
This mode uses the WEP keys currently in use for authentication.
WPA/WPA2 and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK:
WPA stands for WiFi-Protected
Access. WPA provides two security modes: WPA for enterprise network, and
WPA-PSK for home and SOHO users. For enterprise network, WPA uses the
already existing RADIUS server for authentication; for home and SOHO user,
it provides Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for user identication. The Pre-Shared Key
consists of 8 to 64 characters.
Radius with 802.1X:
Similar with WPA, this solution also uses RADIUS server
for authentication. The difference lays on the encryption methods: WPA adopts
TKIP or AES encryption methods, while Radius with 802.1X does not provide
encryption.
When authentication and encryption are set, click
Finish
to save the settings and
restart the wireless router.
