Figure 83 Network > Wireless LAN > Security: Static WEP Chapter 15 Wireless LAN The following table describes the wireless LAN security labels in this screen. Table 48 Network > Wireless LAN > Security: Static WEP LABEL SSID Security Mode PassPhrase DESCRIPTION Select the SSID for which you want to configure the security. Select Static WEP to enable data encryption. Enter a Passphrase (up to 26 printable characters) and click Generate. WEP Encryption A passphrase functions like a password. In WEP security mode, it is further converted by the NBG4615 into a complicated string that is referred to as the "key". This key is requested from all devices wishing to connect to a wireless network. Select 64-bits or 128-bits. Authentication Method This dictates the length of the security key that the network is going to use. Select Auto or Shared Key from the drop-down list box. This field specifies whether the wireless clients have to provide the WEP key to login to the wireless client. Keep this setting at Auto unless you want to force a key verification before communication between the wireless client and the NBG4615 occurs. ASCII Hex Select Shared Key to force the clients to provide the WEP key prior to communication. Select this option in order to enter ASCII characters as WEP key. Select this option in order to enter hexadecimal characters as a WEP key. The preceding "0x", that identifies a hexadecimal key, is entered automatically. NBG4615 User's Guide 133
