I know that this might be a pretty basic question, but I would really appreciate an explanation.

Thanks a lot.
Read the instructions in the first post. If there is enough traffic, then you may not need to authenticate or inject, but if there is not much traffic then authenticating will allow you to force traffic at a great speed (packet injection)
