WEP Encryption Settings Field Descriptions Data Encryption Passphrase Select the encryption key size from the drop-down list: • 64-bit WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 40/64-bit encryption. • 128-bit WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 104/128-bit encryption. • 152-bit WEP. Proprietary WEP encryption mode, using 128+24 bits encryption. This mode functions only with other wireless station that support this mode. Enter a passphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between 8 and 63 characters (inclusive). The secret passphrase allows you to automatically generate the keys by clicking Generate Keys. The default passphrase is sharedsecret. You can display the actual passphrase by selecting the Show Passphrase in Clear Text radio button. Encryption Key (Key1-Key4) Either manually enter a key or allow the key to be automatically generated by clicking Generate Key. • For ASCII format, depending on the key size selected, the manually entered encryption key needs to have a length of 5 (64-bit WEP), 13 (128-bit WEP), or 16 (152-bit WEP) characters. • For HEX format, depending on the key size selected, the manually entered or automatically generated encryption key needs to have a length of 10 (64-bit WEP), 26 (128-bit WEP), or 32 (152-bit WEP) characters. Note: Wireless stations need to use the key to access the wireless access point. Note: Not all wireless adapters support passphrase key generation. Show Passphrase in Select the Yes radio button to display the actual passphrase in the Passphrase field. The Clear Text default setting is No. Configure Legacy 802.1X To use legacy 802.1X security, you need to define RADIUS server settings. For information about RADIUS servers, see Configure RADIUS Server Settings on page 51. When you select Legacy 802.1X from the Network Authentication drop-down list, the Data Encryption drop-down list becomes nonoperational (it shows None only). You need to define the RADIUS servers only to use legacy 802.1X security. Figure 20. Wireless Configuration and Security 48

Configure Legacy 802.1X
To use legacy 802.1X security, you need to define RADIUS server settings. For information
about RADIUS servers, see
Configure RADIUS Server Settings
on page 51.
When you select
Legacy 802.1X
from the Network Authentication drop-down list, the Data
Encryption drop-down list becomes nonoperational (it shows None only). You need to define
the RADIUS servers only to use legacy 802.1X security.
