Command Usage
• If you use WEP key encryption, the access point uses the
transmit key to encrypt multicast and broadcast data signals
that it sends to client devices. Other keys can be used for
decryption of data from clients.
• When using IEEE 802.1x, the access point uses a dynamic
WEP key to encrypt unicast and broadcast messages to
802.1x-enabled clients. However, because the access point
sends the WEP keys during the 802.1x authentication
process, these keys do not have to appear in the client’s
WEP key list.
Example
transmit-power
This command adjusts the power of the radio signals transmitted
from the access point.
