The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 32   Network > Wireless LAN > General: WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

WPA 
Compatible

This check box is available only when you select WPA2-PSK or WPA2 
in the Security Mode field.

Select the check box to have both WPA2 and WPA wireless clients be 
able to communicate with the NBG-460N even when the NBG-460N is 
using WPA2-PSK or WPA2.

Pre-Shared Key  The encryption mechanisms used for WPA/WPA2 and WPA-PSK/

WPA2-PSK are the same. The only difference between the two is that 
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a simple common password, instead of 
user-specific credentials.

• Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 characters (case-sensitive, 

including spaces and symbols) if you select ASCII.

• Type a pre-shared key of up to 64 printable characters if you select 

HEX.

ReAuthenticatio
n Timer (in 
seconds)

Specify how often wireless stations have to resend usernames and 
passwords in order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 10 
and 9999 seconds. The default time interval is 0 or no reauthentication. 

Note: If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS 

server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has 
priority.
