Appendix D Wireless LANs P-663HN-51 User’s Guide 273 However , MD5 authen tication ha s some weaknesses. Since the authentication server needs to get the plaintext password s, t he p assword s must be stored. Thus someone other th an the authenti c a tion server may access th e p a s sw ord fi le.

Appendix D Wireless LANs P-663HN-51 User’s Guide 274 Dynamic WEP Key Exchange The AP maps a unique key that is generated with t he RADIUS server . This key expires when the wireless connection ti me s out, disconnec ts or reauthentication times out. A new WEP key is generated ea ch time reauthenticati on is performed. If this feature is enabled, [...]

Appendix D Wireless LANs P-663HN-51 User’s Guide 275 If the AP or the wireless clients do no t support WP A2, just use WP A or WP A -PSK depending on whether you hav e an external RADIUS server or not.
