Key Values
Figure 8 shows an example of a radio configured to provide static and
dynamic WEP encryption for non-WPA clients. The radio uses dynamically
generated keys to encrypt traffic for dynamic WEP clients. The radio also
encrypts traffic for static WEP clients whose keys match the keys
configured on the radio.

MSS supports dynamic WEP automatically. To enable static WEP,
configure WEP keys and assign them to unicast and multicast traffic. You
can set the values of the four static WEP keys, then specify which of the
keys to use for encrypting multicast frames and unicast frames. If you do
this, MSS continues to support dynamic WEP in addition to static WEP.
If you plan to use static WEP, do not map more than 8 service profiles
that contain static WEP keys to the same radio profile.
