To protect privacy, you can use these features together with other LAN security mechanisms such as

password protection, VPN tunnels, and user authentication.

1 To connect to the System Status page, type https:// in the browser address bar, and the IP

address of the Firebox X Edge trusted interface.

The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1

2 From the navigation bar, select

Network > Wireless (802.11g) and click the Security tab.

Setting the wireless authentication method

Select the authentication method to use for your wireless network connection. The options are Open

System, Shared Key, and WPA-PSK.

Open System

Open System authentication allows any user to authenticate with the access point. This method

can be used with no encryption, or with WEP encryption. Although Open System

authentication is the default authentication method for some versions of Microsoft Windows,

other methods are more secure.

Shared Key

In Shared Key authentication, only those wireless clients that have the shared key can connect.

This is more secure than Open System authentication. Shared Key authentication can be used

only with WEP encryption.

WPA-PSK

PSK (pre-shared key) is the only WPA authentication method the Firebox X Edge e-Series

Wireless supports at this time.

Configuring encryption

From the Encryption drop-down list, select the level of encryption for your wireless connections. The

options change when you use different authentication mechanisms.
