is desired or not. Setting of the various encryption options is done in the [encryption]
section.

[encryption]

This section contains the configuration parameters that are used when encryption is
enabled. If encryption is not enabled, these parameters have no effect on the wireless
bridge operation.
transmit key
This value sets which of the following keys are used to encrypt

transmitted data. The default setting for this value is 1.
encryption key 1-4
I
decrypting data on the radio. The key should be specified as either a 10-digit or a
26-digit hexadecimal number. Note that the number should always have a 0x before
the hexadecimal digits. Use 10 digits for a 64-bit key, and 26 digits for a 128-bit key.
