Authentication 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 wireless printer uses a WEP key 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 printer to associate with access points using TKIP for WPA-PSK, or AES for WPA-PSK and

WPA2-PSK (WPA-Personal).

Encryption methods



None

No encryption method is used.



WEP

When 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

rekeying mechanism.



AES

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is the Wi-Fi

Network key


