G-1000 User's Guide
The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your G-1000. EAP (Extensible
Authentication Protocol) is used for authentication and utilizes dynamic WEP key exchange. It
requires interaction with a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) server
either on the WAN or your LAN to provide authentication service for wireless stations

6.3.1 WEP Encryption

WEP encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless stations and the access
points to keep network communications private. It encrypts unicast and multicast
communications in a network. Both the wireless stations and the access points must use the
same WEP key.
Your G-1000 allows you to configure up to four 64-bit or 128-bit WEP keys, but only one key
can be enabled at any one time.
In order to configure and enable WEP encryption; click WIRELESS and the Wireless tab to
the display the Wireless screen.
