    Authentication and encryption for wireless users onlyE
    Authentication methodE
    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/WPA2-PSK
    Enables a Wi-Fi
    ® Protected Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), which enables 
    the Brother wireless machine to associate with access points using TKIP for WPA-PSK and 
    WPA2-PSK (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 methodsE
    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 a Wi-Fi
    ® authorized strong encryption standard.
    „CKIP
    The original Key Integrity Protocol for LEAP by Cisco Systems, Inc.
    „CMIC
    CMIC (Cisco Message Integrity Check) is the message integrity check mechanism for LEAP 
    by Cisco Systems, Inc.
     
    						
    							Specifications
    235
    E
    Network keyE
    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/WPA2-PSK and TKIP/AES
    Uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 
    63 characters.
    „LEAP
    Users User ID and Password.
    • User ID: less than 64 characters in length.
    • Password: less than 32 characters in length.
    Wi-Fi Alliance certificationE
    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. For more information on the Wi-Fi 
    Alliance and other Wi-Fi certified products, visit http://www.wi-fi.org
