AuthenticationMethoduint16
DescriptionstringAuthenticationMethod shall specify the 802.11 authentication method used when the settings are applied. * Other (1): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is not specified in the list below. If AuthenticationMethod contains 1, OtherAuthenticationMethod should not be NULL and should not be empty. * Open System (2): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is Open System. AuthenticationMethod should contain 2 only if EncryptionMethod contains 2 ("WEP") or 5 ("None"). * Shared Key (3): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is Shared Key. AuthenticationMethod should contain 3 only if EncryptionMethod contains 2 ("WEP") or 5 ("None"). * WPA PSK (4): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) PSK (Pre-Shared Key). AuthenticationMethod should contain 4 only if EncryptionMethod contains 3 ("TKIP") or 4 ("CCMP"). * WPA IEEE 802.1x (5): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) IEEE 802.1x. AuthenticationMethod should contain 5 only if EncryptionMethod contains 3 ("TKIP") or 4 ("CCMP"). * WPA2 PSK (6): shall indicate that the desired authentication method is WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 2) PSK (Pre-Shared Key). AuthenticationMethod should containt 6 only if EncryptionMethod contains 3 ("TKIP") or 4 ("CCMP"). * WPA2 IEEE 802.1x (7): shall indicated that the desired authentication method is WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 2) IEEE 802.1x. AuthenticationMethod should contain 7 only if EncryptionMethod contains 3 ("TKIP") or 4 ("CCMP").

BSSTypeuint16
DescriptionstringBSSType shall indicate the Basic Service Set (BSS) Type that shall be used when the settings are applied. A Basic Service Set is a set of stations controlled by a single coordination function. * Independent: the WiFiEndpoint is associated directly to another client station. * Infrastructure: the WiFiEndpoint is associated to a network via an access point.

EncryptionMethoduint16
DescriptionstringEncryptionMethod shall specify the 802.11 encryption method used when the settings are applied. * Other (1): shall indicate that the desired encryption method is not specified in the list below. If this value is used, OtherEncryptionMethod should not be NULL and should not be empty. * WEP (2): shall indicate that the desired encryption method is Wired Equivalency Privacy (WEP). This value should be used only if AuthenticationMethod contains 2 ("Open System") or 3 ("Shared Key"). * TKIP (3): shall indicate that the desired encryption method is Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). This value should be used only if AuthenticationMethod contains 4 ("WPA PSK"), 5 ("WPA IEEE 802.1x"), 6 ("WPA2 PSK"), or 7 ("WPA2 IEEE 802.1x"). * CCMP (4): shall indicate that the desired encryption method is Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol (CCMP). This value should be used only if AuthenticationMethod contains 4 ("WPA PSK"), 5 ("WPA IEEE 802.1x"), 6 ("WPA2 PSK"), or 7 ("WPA2 IEEE 802.1x"). * None (5): shall indicate that no encryption is desired. This value should be used only if AuthenticationMethod contains 2 ("Open System") or 3 ("Shared Key").
