Description
Determines which of the four WEP keys this
IF5 uses to transmit data.
For WEP 64, enter five ASCII characters or hex
pairs. For WEP 128, enter 13 ASCII characters
or hex pairs.
To enter a key in hex format, precede the hex
pairs with 0x. For example, an ASCIIWEP key
of ABCDE would be entered in hex format as
0x4142434445.
Specifies whether encryption will be used as
part of the authentication algorithm to
authenticate the IF5. Choose Shared Key to
require encryption or Open System to require
no encryption.
Enable this mode to allow the IF5 to
communicate with Cisco access points
configured for mixed-cell use. Mixed-cell use
allows both WEP and non-WEP clients to
communicate with the same access point.
