Specifications 169 Authentication and encryption for wireless users only Authentication method The Brother machine supports the following methods: „Open system Wireless devices are allowed to access the network without any authentication. „Shared key A secret pre-determined key is shared by all devices that will access the wireless network. The Brother machine uses the WEP keys as the pre-determined key. „WPA-PSK Enables a Wi-FI Protected Access Pre-Shared key (WPA-PSK), which enables the Brother wireless machine to associate with access points using TKIP encryption (WPA-Personal). „LEAP Cisco LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) has been developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. and enables the Brother wireless product to associate with access points using CKIP and CMIC encryptions. Encryption methods Encryption is used to secure the data that is sent over the wireless network. The Brother machine supports the following encryption methods: „WEP By using WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), the data is transmitted and received with a secure key. „TKIP TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per-packet key mixing a message integrity check and re-keying mechanism. „AES AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is Wi-Fi ® authorized strong encryption standard. „CKIP The original Key Integrity Protocol for LEAP by Cisco Systems, Inc.
170 Network key There are some rules for each security method: „Open system/Shared key with WEP This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or hexadecimal format. • 64 (40) bit ASCII: Uses 5 text characters. e.g.“WSLAN” (this is case sensitive). • 64 (40) bit hexadecimal: Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data. e.g.“71f2234aba” • 128 (104) bit ASCII: Uses 13 text characters. e.g.“Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive) • 128 (104) bit hexadecimal: Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data. e.g.“71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa2ba” „WPA-PSK and TKIP/AES Uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is more than 7 and less than 64 characters in length. Wi-Fi Alliance certification This wireless Ethernet multi-function print server is a Wi-Fi certified IEEE 802.11b/802.11g product by the Wi-Fi Alliance. The Wi-Fi Alliance certification ensures the interoperability of other wireless LAN products based on the IEEE 802.11 specification.
