key
key This command sets the keys used for WEP encryption. Use the no form to
delete a configured key.
SYNTAX
key {<index> <size> <type> <value> | static | dynamic}
no key <index>
index - Key index. (Range: 1-4)
size - Key size. (Options: 64 or 128 bits)
type - Input format. (Options: ASCII, HEX)
value - The key string.
For 64-bit keys, use 5 alphanumeric characters or 10
hexadecimal digits.
For 128-bit keys, use 13 alphanumeric characters or 26
hexadecimal digits.
static - Uses static WEP keys with 802.1X authentication.
dynamic - When using 802.1X authentication, allows WEP keys to
be dynamically generated by the RADIUS server.
DEFAULT SETTING
None
COMMAND MODE
Interface Configuration (Wireless-VAP)
COMMAND USAGE
◆ To enable WEP, use the auth shared-key command to select the
“shared key” authentication type, use the key command to configure at
least one key, and then use the transmit-key command to select a key
to use.
◆ If WEP is enabled, all wireless clients must be configured with the same
shared keys to communicate with the VAP.
◆ The WEP key index, length and type configured for the VAP must match
those configured for clients.
