 Chapter 8 Wireless Security Screen

NWA1100-N User’s Guide

This screen varies depending on whether you select Access Point or Wireless Client in the 
Wireless > Wireless Settings screen.

Use this screen to employ WPA as the security mode for your NWA that is in Access Point operating 
mode. Select WPA in the Security Mode field to display the following screen.

Security: WPA for Access Point 

Key 1 to Key 4

If you chose 802.1x Static 64, then enter any 5 characters (ASCII string) or 10 
hexadecimal characters  ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each key.

If you chose 802.1x Static 128-bit, then enter 13 characters (ASCII string) or 
26 hexadecimal characters  ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each key.

There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from eavesdropping by 
unauthorized wireless users. The values for the keys must be set up exactly the 
same on the access points as they are on the wireless stations.

The preceding “0x” is entered automatically. You must configure all four keys, 
but only one key can be activated at any one time.

Rekey Options

ReAuthentication 
Timer

Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and passwords in 
order to stay connected. 

Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. Alternatively, enter “0” to 
turn reauthentication off. 

Note: If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the 

reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority. 

Group-Key 
Update

The NWA automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network 
after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the user name and 
password again before access to the wired network is allowed.
