SECURITY WIRED EQUIVALENT PRIVACY (WEP) WEP provides a basic level of security, preventing unauthorized access to the network, and encrypting data transmitted between wireless clients and an access point. WEP uses static shared keys (fixed-length hexadecimal or alphanumeric strings) that are manually distributed to all clients that want to use the network. When you select to use WEP, be sure to define at least one static WEP key for user authentication or data encryption.
◆ WEP Keys — Sets WEP key values. The user must first select ASCII or hexadecimal keys. Each WEP key has an index number. Enter key values that match the key type and length settings. Enter 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit keys, or enter 13 alphanumeric characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit keys.
each client. ◆ Key Renewal Interval — Sets the time period for automatically changing data encryption keys and redistributing them to all connected clients. (Default: 3600 seconds) RADIUS Server — Configures RADIUS server settings. ◆ IP Address — Specifies the IP address of the RADIUS server. ◆ Port — The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port number used by the RADIUS server for authentication messages.
Key are accepted for authentication. The default data encryption type is TKIP/AES. ◆ WPA Algorithms — Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default is determined by the Security Mode selected.) ■ TKIP — Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to replace WEP. TKIP avoids the problems of WEP static keys by dynamically changing data encryption keys. ■ AES — Uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys for encryption.
authentication. IEEE 802.1X can also be enabled on its own as a security mode for user authentication. When 802.1X is used, a RADIUS server must be configured and be available on the connected wired network. 802.1X WEP: Selects WEP keys for data encryption. When enabled, WEP encryption keys are automatically generated by the RADIUS server and distributed to all connected clients. (Default: Disabled) RADIUS Server — Configures RADIUS server settings.
