B.5
Configuring Static WEP Security On A Client
Static Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encrypts data moving across a wireless network
based on a static (non-changing) key. The encryption algorithm is a "stream" cipher called
RC4. The access point uses a key to transmit data to the client stations. Each client must use
that same key to decrypt data it receives from the access point. Different clients can use dif-
ferent keys to transmit data to the access point. (Or they can all use the same key, but this is
less secure because it means one station can decrypt the data being sent by another.)
