WEP Key
Description
Wireless service type (IE information carried in the beacon or probe response
frame):
•
WPA—Wi-Fi Protected Access.
•
RSN—An RSN is a security network that allows only the creation of robust
security network associations (RSNAs). It provides greater protection than
WEP and WPA.
•
WPA and RSN—It indicates that you can select both WPA and RSN..
•
Enable—A WEP key is dynamically assigned.
•
Disable—A static WEP key is used.
By default, a static WEP key is used.
When you enable this function, the WEP option is automatically set to wep104.
IMPORTANT:
•
This function must be used together with 802.1X authentication.
•
With dynamic WEP encryption configured, the WEP key used to encrypt
unicast frames is negotiated between client and server. If the WEP default
key is configured, the WEP default key is used to encrypt multicast frames.
If not, the device randomly generates a multicast WEP key.
•
wep40—Indicates the WEP40 key option.
•
wep104—Indicates the WEP104 key option.
•
wep128—Indicates the WEP128 key option.
Configure the key index, which can be:
•
1—Key index 1.
•
2—Key index 2.
•
3—Key index 3.
•
4—Key index 4.
There are 4 static keys in WEP. The key index can be 1, 2, 3 or 4. The key
corresponding to the specified key index is used for encrypting and decrypting
broadcast and multicast frames.
Key length.
