To set the value of a WEP key, use the following command:
set service-profile name wep key-index num key value
The key-index num parameter specifies the index you are configuring.
You can specify a value from 1 through 4.
The key value parameter specifies the hexadecimal value of the key. Type
a 10-character ASCII string (representing a 5-digit hexadecimal number)
or type a 26-character ASCII string (representing a 13-digit hexadecimal
number). You can use numbers or letters. ASCII characters in the
following ranges are supported:
0 to 9
A to F
a to f
To configure WEP key index 1 for radio profile rp1 to aabbccddee, type
the following command:
WX1200# set service-profile rp1 wep key-index 1 key
aabbccddee
success: change accepted.
When static WEP is enabled, static WEP key 1 is assigned to unicast and
multicast traffic by default. To assign another key to unicast or multicast
traffic, use the following commands:
set service-profile name wep active-multicast-index num
set service-profile name wep active-unicast-index num
The num parameter specifies the key and the value can be from 1 to 4.
To configure an SSID that uses service profile wepsrvc to use WEP key
index 2 for encrypting multicast traffic, type the following command:
WX1200# set service-profile wepsrvc
wep active-multicast-index 2
success: change accepted.
To configure an SSID that uses service profile wepsrvc4 to use WEP key
index 4 for encrypting unicast traffic, type the following command:
WX1200# set service-profile wepsrvc4 wep
active-unicast-index 4
success: change accepted.
