Enable Mixed Mode; Wep Encryption) - Avaya AP-4 User Manual

Enable Mixed Mode (802.1x and WEP Encryption)
Follow these steps to use both 802.1x and WEP Encryption
simultaneously (clients that do not support 802.1x use WEP Encryption
for security purposes):
1. Within the 802.1x Configuration screen, set 802.1x Security
Mode to Mixed.
2. Enter a Re-keying Interval.
— The Re-keying Interval determines how often a client's
encryption key is changed and can be set to any value
between 60 - 65535 seconds. Rekeying frustrates hacking
attempts without taxing system resources. Setting a fairly
frequent rekey value (900 seconds=15 minutes) effectively
protects against intrusion without disrupting network activities.
3. Click OK to save the changes.
4. Click the Encryption tab.
5. Place a check mark in the box labeled Enable Encryption (WEP).
6. Configure Encryption Key 1 only (i.e., do not configure Keys 2
through 4). Keep in mind the following:
— For 64-bit encryption, an encryption key is 10 hexadecimal
characters (0-9 and A-F) or 5 ASCII characters (see
Character
— For 128-bit encryption, an encryption key is 26 hexadecimal
characters or 13 ASCII characters.
