Privacy Menu

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is an optional IEEE 802.11 feature used to provide data confidentiality

that is equivalent to the confidentiality of a wired LAN that does not employ crypto techniques to enhance

privacy. WEP will only make the wireless LAN link in a system as secure as the wired link. This option is

only available at 1 and 2Mb datarates. It will not operate at 5.5 or 11Mb (4800 series only).

Encryption

This parameter will invoke encryption on all datapackets except association and some control packets.

Setting this to off will turn off all encryption. Setting this to on, will require all data transfers to be

encrypted. All clients wishing to use the Access Point will be required to have encryption active, and a key

set properly.

Client

This parameter determines which method of authentication the client and Access Point will use. Aironet

recommends the use of the OPEN parameter. The IEEE 802.11 specification allows also the Shared Key

authentication. For more information on Shared Key, see the IEEE 802.11 specification

Key

The value here must match all authorized users on the system. This is the key to the encryption algorithm.

Enter in up to 10 hex characters.
