2.2.12 Change 80211 WEP
Enabling WEP (Wireless Equivalent Privacy) means the MSS will only connect to an AP (in infrastructure
mode) or communicate with other ad-hoc peers (in ad-hoc mode) that have been programmed with the same
WEP key as the MSS. All wireless network traffic the MSS sends will be encrypted with its WEP key and
any encrypted wireless network traffic the MSS receives will be decrypted with its WEP key. Disabling
WEP causes the MSS to ignore its WEP key and only receive and transmit unencrypted network traffic.
Any configuration changes you make will not take place until you issue the Change 80211 Reset command.
Restrictions Requires privileged user status.
Only applies to the MSS-VIA and certain MSS4 models.
Errors If you enter a command that is not applicable to the 802.11 card currently in
use, you will receive an Error message.
Parameters
Enabled
Enables WEP.
Disabled
Disables WEP.
Index
Assigns the index number that should be used with the WEP key.
num
Enter an integer between 1 and 4. For two keys to match, both their key data
and their index number must be identical.
Key
Sets the WEP key. The MSS allows both 40-bit and 128-bit keys, and will
determine which key length is being set by the length of the key data.
