Default WEP Key
This feature enables you to encrypt (scramble) information for security purposes.
With this feature, you can set up to four encryption keys, in either ASCII or
hexadecimal format, and in either 40 or 128 bits. (The more bits you choose, the
more difficult it will be to decode the information.)
Note: None of the WEP Key Configuration menus display on the configuration
printout.
WEP Key Format
Allows you to format the WEP keys in ASCII or hexadecimal code. The default is
hexadecimal.
WEP Key Width
This is the encryption strength. The options are 40 Bits and 128 Bits; 40 Bits are
weaker and 128 Bits are stronger.
Note: If you select 40 Bits, the WEP key BYTE6 through WEP Key BYTE13 menus
will not display.
The default is 128 Bits.
WEP Key BYTE1 through BYTE 13
These are the individual characters of the encryption key.
Reset WEP Keys
Allows you to reset all four WEP keys (WEP Key 1 through WEP Key 4) at one
time.
