TKIP takes the original master key only as a starting point and derives its encryption keys mathematically from this mater key. Then it regularly changes and rotates the encryption keys so that the same encryption key will be never used twice. AES provides security between client workstations operating in ad hoc mode. It uses a mathematical ciphering algorithm that employs variable key sizes of 128, 192 or 256 bits. TKIP+AES combines the features and functions of TKIP and AES. After finished settings, click Apply for activation. Security – WPA-PSK For the WPA-PSK network Authentication, the settings that you can adjust including WPA Pre-Shared Key, WPA Group Rekey Interval, and Data Encryption.
