Intel Wireless PROSet Control Panel security settings?

I have a Cisco Small Business WRVS4400N Router and in the router, I had noticed that the only encryption setting is AES with WPA2 Personal.

On the Intel PROSet Wireless Control Panel, I was able to set WPA2 Personal/AES-CCMP which I read is more likely to be more secure than the standard AES.

Does this mean that my Wireless connection would still use the AES standard or would it be using the AES-CCMP instead?

Because my router is set to use AES with no option of AES-CCMP while I do have the option of selecting that within the PROSet Control Panel.

So please help me clear my confusion here. Am I using AES or AES-CCMP?

I posted an image as well of my PROSet Wireless Control Panel setting and from the router.

Does this allay your concern, OP?

Cisco's Datasheet for the WRVS4400N indicating it follows the 802.11i standard, which includes mandatory use of CCMP.

...and according to the WiFi Alliance's certification data on the WRVS4400N, last certification date 2008-06-20
