In dynamic WEP encryption, each device on the wireless network
is assigned a different encryption key that expires at preset
intervals and is then replaced.
WPA encryption is an enhanced version of dynamic WEP and offers
improved security. For example, new encryption keys are generated
for fixed amounts of data (10 kilobytes) transmitted by a device on
the network.
When configuring HP Jetdirect print servers for dynamic
encryption, the following options may be provided if supported by
the print server:
● Basic Encryption. This option provides dynamic WEP
encryption and may be used when using selected EAP/802.1x
authentication methods LEAP, PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS.
● Robust Encryption. This option supports dynamic WPA and
WEP encryption. It is used with EAP/PSK authentication, and
with selected EAP/802.1x authentication methods PEAP,
EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS. Robust Encryption provides for dynamic
WPA and WEP encryption protocols.
If WPA dynamic encryption is not supported by your HP Jetdirect
wireless print server, EAP/PSK authentication and Robust
Encryption selections will not be available.
