4.5.1.4 Configuring Different Encryption Types
To configure the WLAN data encryption options available on the switch, refer to the following:
• Configuring WEP 64
• Configuring WEP 128 / KeyGuard
• Configuring WPA/WPA2 using TKIP and CCMP
Configuring WEP 64
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security protocol specified in the IEEE Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) standard.
WEP is designed to provide a WLAN with a level of security and privacy comparable to that of a wired LAN.
WEP 64 is a less robust encryption scheme than WEP 128 (shorter WEP algorithm for a hacker to duplicate),
but WEP 64 may be all that a small-business user needs for the simple encryption of wireless data. However,
networks that require more security are at risk from a WEP flaw. The existing 802.11 standard alone offers
administrators no effective method to update keys.
To configure WEP 64:
1. Select Network
2. Select an existing WLAN from those displayed within the
A WLAN screen displays with the WLAN's existing configuration. Refer to the
Encryption columns to assess the WLAN's existing security configuration.
3. Select the WEP 64
CHAP is an encrypted authentication method based on Microsoft's challenge/
response authentication protocol.
Optionally mark packets with a DiffServ CodePoint (DSCP) in its header. The DSCP
value is stored in the first 6 bits of the Type of Service (ToS) field that is part of the
standard IP header. The DCSP values are associated with a forwarding treatment
called Per Hop Behaviors (PHB). Service can be provisioned (if necessary) by
assigning a DCSP point code from 1 - 6.
