4.6.1 WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an encryption security option based on IEEE
802.11 that uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. WEP encryption scrambles the
data transmitted between the wireless stations and the access points to keep
network communications private. It encrypts unicast and multicast communications
in a network. Both the wireless stations and the access points must use the same
WEP key. The FSG1100HN allows configuration of up to four 64-bit or 128-bit WEP
keys but only one key can be enabled at any one time.
