PRO 11 SERIES WIRELESS ETHERNET
WEP, also referred to as the Privacy option, must be ordered specifically and is not
supported by default. The security mechanism involves configuration of the
following parameters:
• Authentication Algorithm — This module operates in two modes: 0–Open
System (default): no authentication, or 1–Shared Key authentication (for
systems that have the privacy option implemented).
• Default Key ID — The key to be used for the encryption of transmitted
messages.
• Pre-authentication — Set this parameter to Enabled when there is a great deal
of roaming between the Access Points. Pre-authentication must be activated on
both the Access Points and the stations.
• Privacy Option Implemented — Yes if Shared Key authentication is supported,
No if Shared Key authentication is not supported.
• WEP Key#1–4 — The four encryption keys must be set before you can use the
Shared Key Authentication Mode. The encryption keys you enter for the
Access Point must match those defined in the stations. Each key is a
combination of 10 Hex digits.
NOTE
We recommend changing the encryption keys periodically to enhance
system security.
