5. Specify a 4 to 32 character
The pass key can be any alphanumeric string. The switch and MUs use the algorithm to convert an
ASCII string to the same hexadecimal number. MUs without Motorola adapters need to use WEP keys
manually configured as hexadecimal numbers.

keys by an unauthorized person.
