Wireless LAN security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless 
stations and the wired network. 
The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your ZyAIR. EAP (Extensible 
Authentication Protocol) is used for authentication and utilizes dynamic WEP key exchange. It requires 
interaction with a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) server either on the WAN or 
your LAN to provide authentication service for wireless stations.
