Client or AP? If it's client mode, that's normally just automagically done based on the scan result.

If it's AP, that's not actually brought out in the top level API at the moment... It just lets you do Open or WPA2 (depending on whether or not you provide a password).

It is possible to configure every detail of the connection (down to the BSSID to connect to) over the driver interface, but it's not currently brought up to the top. What granularity are you looking for?

Personally I am good the way it is WPA2, but the web developer wants to have the user to be able to select other options. So I guess whatever it can do bring them all to the top.

I would tell them to take a look at how it is brought out to the web in an example which can be found in ... :

...\Nburn\examples\StandardStack\Wifi\NBWIFIIN-100IR\WifiScan\main.cpp

ofcourse I might be wrong - i'm just learning to use it as well
