DESCRIPTION
Select Static WEP to enable data encryption.
Enter a Passphrase (up to 26 printable characters) and click Generate.
A passphrase functions like a password. In WEP security mode, it is further converted by
the WRE6606 into a complicated string that is referred to as the "key". This key is
requested from all devices wishing to connect to a wireless network.
Select 64-bits or 128-bits.
This dictates the length of the security key that the network is going to use.
Select Auto or Shared Key from the drop-down list box.
This field specifies whether the wireless clients have to provide the WEP key to login to
the wireless client. Keep this setting at Auto unless you want to force a key verification
before communication between the wireless client and the WRE6606 occurs.
Select Shared Key to force the clients to provide the WEP key prior to communication.
Select this option in order to enter ASCII characters as WEP key.
Select this option in order to enter hexadecimal characters as a WEP key.
The preceding "0x", that identifies a hexadecimal key, is entered automatically.
The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the WRE6606 and the wireless stations
must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
If you chose 64-bits, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters
("0-9", "A-F").
If you chose 128-bits, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-
9", "A-F").
You must configure at least one key, only one key can be activated at any one time. The
default key is key 1.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the WRE6606.
Click Reset to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
