WL-500gP V2 provides a set of encryption and
authentication methods to meet the different demands
of home, SOHO, and enterprise users. Before setting up
encryption and authentication for WL-500gP V2, contact
your network administrator for advice.
Click Wireless -> InterfaceWRRSHQWKHFRQĂJXUDWLRQSDJH
Encryption
The encrytion modes supported by WL-500gP V2 are: WEP (64bits), WEP
(128bits), TKIP, AES, and TKIP+AES.
WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy, it uses 64bits or 128bits static keys
to encrypt the data for wireless transmission. To setup WEP keys, set WEP
Encryption to WEP-64bits or WEP-128bits, then manually type in four sets
WEP Keys (10 hexadicimal digits for 64-bit key or 26 hexadicimal digits for
128-bit key). You can also let the system generate the keys by entering a
Passphrase.
TKIP stands for Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. TKIP dynamically generates
unique keys to encrypt every data packet in a wireless session.
AES stands for Advanced Encryption Standard. This solution offers stronger
protection and increases the complexity of wireless encryption.
TKIP+AES is used when both WPA and WPA2 clients co-exist in the wireless
network.

Authentication
The authentication methods supported by WL-500gP V2 include: Open, shared
key, WPA-PSK, WPA, and Radius with 80.211x.
Open: This option disables authentication protection for wireless network. Under
Open mode, any IEEE802.11b/g client can connect to your wireless network.
Shared: This mode uses the the WEP keys currently in use for authentication.
WPA and WPA-PSK: WPA stands for WiFi-Protected Access. WPA provides two
security modes: WPA for enterprise network, and WPA-PSK for home and SOHO
users. For enterprise network, WPA uses the already existing RADIUS server for
authentication; for home and SOHO user, it provides Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for
XVHULGHQWLĂFDWLRQ7KH3UH6KDUHG.H\FRQVLVWVRIWRFKDUDFWHUV
Radius with 802.1X: Similar with WPA, this solution also uses RADIUS server
for authentication. The difference lays on the encryption mothods: WPA adopts
TKIP or AES encryption methods, while Radius with 802.1X does not provide
encryption.
When authentication and encryption are set, click Finish to save the settings and
restart the wireless router.

To expose an internal host to Internet and make all services provided by this host
available to outside users, enable Vitural DMZ function to open all ports of the host.
This function is useful when the host plays multiple roles such as HTTP server and
FTP server. However, in doing this, your network becomes less secure.
1. Click9LUWXDO'0=in the NAT Setting menu.
2. Enter the IP address of the
host and click Finish.
3. Click Save & Restart to
restart the wireless router
and activate the settings.
