Chapter 6 Wireless Screens 81
6.13 Security Parameters Summary
Refer to this table to see what other security parameters you should configure for each
authentication method/ key management protocol type. You enter manual keys by first
selecting 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP or 152-bit WEP from the WEP Encryption field and
then typing the keys (in ASCII or hexadecimal format) in the key text boxes. MAC address
filters are not dependent on how you configure these security features.
6.14 Wireless Client WPA Supplicants
A wireless client supplicant is the software that runs on an operating system instructing the
wireless client how to use WPA. At the time of writing, the most widely available supplicants
are the WPA patch for Windows XP, Funk Software's Odyssey client, and Meetinghouse Data
Communications' AEGIS client.
The Windows XP patch is a free download that adds WPA capability to Windows XP's built-
in "Zero Configuration" wireless client. However, you must run Windows XP to use it.
6.15 Configuring Wireless Security
In order to configure and enable wireless security; click SETTINGS > WIRELESS >
Security to display the Security screen. This screen varies according to the encryption method
you select.
