Chapter 6: Configuring Security
190
Since static WEP keys can be difficult to update, the AT-WA7500 and
AT-WA7501 access products let you enter up to four WEP keys, and then
pick a WEP transmit key (1-4). It is easier to rotate the WEP transmit key
than to individually change all the WEP keys.
802.11g and 802.11b radios support WEP 64/128 security, and 802.11a
radios supports 64/128/152 security:
WEP 64 has four 40-bit encryption keys and one 24-bit initialization
vector (IV) key. Enter five ASCII characters or five hex pairs for the
WEP keys.
WEP 128 provides a higher degree of encryption protection. It has four
104-bit encryption keys and one 24-bit IV key. Enter 13 ASCII
characters or hex pairs.
WEP 152 provides the highest degree of encryption protection. It has
four 128-bit encryption keys and one 24-bit IV key. Enter 16 ASCII
characters or hex pairs.
To configure WEP 64/128/152 security
1. From the main menu, click Security and then click the radio service set
you are configuring. The appropriate radio screen appears.
2. In the Security Level field, select Static WEP.
