Keys menu command
Specifying the WEP key
To allow you to enable the encryption for the Open System and Shared Key authentication
methods, you must first enter at least one key in the key table. You can choose between
several key lengths. 5 or 13 ASCII or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters specify a weaker key
(40/104 bits). 16 ASCII or 32 hexadecimal characters, on the other hand, define a strong key
(128 bits).
You can also create keys for WDS Redundancy and ACL Private (these are not supported
by all clients for ACL).
Note
For the key, you can use characters 0x20 to 0x7e from the ASCII code. Below, there is a list
of all supported characters starting with a space:
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[
\
]^_`
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
