Table 4.3 Item 802.11B Configuration Parameters (6 of 7) Description Static (WEP) Select Static (WEP) if your wireless network uses WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) keys for basic access control and data privacy. Under the control of your network administrator, each wireless device on the network must be configured with the same key. Encrypt transmit data using: Select the current active key. The HP Jetdirect print server can store up to four WEP keys using four key positions (Key 1, 2, 3, 4). But there can be only a single active key for a given network (or SSID) at a time. Key 1 is the default active key. Note: When you enter WEP keys, be sure to enter them in the key positions (or fields) that match other wireless devices on your network. For example, if other devices on your wireless network are using a WEP key in the Key 2 position as the active key, then you must also enter this WEP key in the Key 2 field on the Jetdirect print server and select Key 2 as the active key. The different key positions will have different encryption and decryption results. The HP Jetdirect wireless print server supports WEP keys for 40/64-bit and 104/128-bit encryption. To enter one or more WEP keys: Input keys in: Select whether you'll use alphanumeric characters or hexadecimal digits to specify WEP keys. Select Alphanumeric to enter your WEP keys using alphanumeric ASCII (8-bit) characters. Alphanumeric characters are limited to 0 through 9, a through z, A through Z. (Note: Alphanumeric characters are case-sensitive.Entering lower- or uppercase characters, 'a - z' or 'A - Z', will result in different WEP key values.) Select Hexadecimal to enter hexadecimal (4-bit) digits. Hexadecimal digits may be 0 through 9, a through f, A through F. (Note: Hexadecimal digits are not case-sensitive.Entering loweror uppercase values, 'a - f' or 'A - F', will result in the same WEP key value.) All keys entered must be of the same length, either for 40/64-bit or 104/128-bit encryption. In each Key field, enter your 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal digits (40 bits) for "64-bit" encryption, or 13 alphanumeric characters or 26 hexadecimal digits (104 bits) for "128-bit" encryption. (Note: In both cases, 24 "Initialization Vector" bits are automatically added.) ENWW Using the Embedded Web Server 118
