Encryption Keys – Key 1 to Key 4
Encryption keys Key 1 to Key 4 accept either ASCII or hex values. Keep the
following in mind when assigning encryption key values:
• If you enter a hexadecimal value, precede it with ‘0x’.
• Ensure that you enter the same encryption key value on the terminal and on
the Access Point with which the terminal will be communicating.
Allowable values are as follows:
• Key 1 (5/13 ASCII digits or “0x” followed by 10/26 hex digits).
The default is
12345
.
• Key 2 (5/13 ASCII digits or “0x” followed by 10/26 hex digits).
The default is "".
• Key 3 (5/13 ASCII digits or “0x” followed by 10/26 hex digits).
The default is "".
• Key 4 (5/13 ASCII digits or “0x” followed by 10/26 hex digits).
The default is "".
TX Key
This parameter allows you to specify the encryption key – from 1 to 4 – that will
be used to encrypt transmissions. For example, if you assign a value of 1, ‘Key 1’ is
used to encrypt transmissions. If you assign a value of 2, ‘Key 2’ is used to encrypt
transmissions, and so on.
Note: While all transmissions are encrypted using the key specified in “Tx Key”,
the radio will receive traffic encrypted with any of the encryption keys.
LEAP
LEAP is an authentication protocol that is proprietary to Cisco and is designed to
operate with Cisco Access Points. It is encapsulated in an EAP (Extensible Authen-
tication Protocol) packet used in conjunction with the 802.1x standard to authenti-
cate users at the MAC layer. The 802.1x standard does not specify EAP types.
LEAP also provides the terminal with a new WEP key. Each terminal has a unique
WEP key to increase the security of the 802.11 radio link.
When this parameter is set to “Y”, a unique
User Name
and
Password
must be
assigned for the terminal which the access point uses to forward authentication
information to the RADIUS server.
