Entering the Encryption Keys You can decline to enter an encryption string (as
described in the preceding section) and instead manually enter the WEP keys. To manually
enter the WEP keys in hexadecimal notation, follow these steps:
1 In the Network / Security tab of the Wireless Bridge Configuration screen, select
40-bit Shared Key from the Security setting list (see step 2 on page 17.)
2 Click Encryption Key Settings.
The 40 Bit Encryption Key Settings screen appears.
3 Select Specify Encryption Keys.
4 Enter the key settings.
Hexadecimal keys are sequences of hexadecimal digits arranged into four keys.
A hexadecimal digit may be a letter from A to F or a number from 0 to 9. You
must enter settings for all four keys. All four keys must be entered in precisely the
same hexadecimal notation for all the wireless bridges you are configuring for
your network.
5 Click one of the radio buttons to select the transmit key to use.
6 Click OK when finished.
