8.4.10 Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) Settings
Use this security standard to obtain at least the minimum in security in your WLAN. To use
WEP in the AccessPoint, all clients must have standardized security settings. The WEP
keys must therefore be adapted directly after configuration of the AccessPoint.
Use this security standard to obtain at least the minimum in security in your WLAN. To use

keys must therefore be adapted directly after configuration of the AccessPoint.
WEP keys 1, 2, 3 & 4:
When you enable the 64- or 128-bit WEP algorithm, please select one WEP key to be
used. If you are using a 128-bit key (recommended), you have to enter a 26-digit hexa-
decimal key (0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B…F) in the appropriate field:
Example 128 bit: FEDCBA01234567890123456789
26 digits
Example
64
bit:
FEDCBA0123 10
digits
Passphase generator: Since hexadecimal characters are difficult to memorize, this de-
vice offers a conversion utility from a simple word into the hexadecimal code. Click the key
you want to update, enter your passphrase and press “Generate Keys”. The key is then
updated. Proceed likewise with the other three keys if necessary. Manual entry of the keys
in the client is recommended.
Once the WEP security settings are complete, you also have to copy them to the client as
otherwise further configuration of the AccessPoint, at least via wireless clients, is no longer
possible (AP with WEP, wireless client without WEP ► no further communication).
L
Note: Even if different suppliers or even devices within
the same brand support the passphrase generator, it
cannot be taken as a given that keys generated from dif-
ferent devices will be the same. You should therefore al-
ways use just one passphrase generator for creating keys
in the wireless network. Add the keys manually. Always
carefully compare the entries in the AccessPoint and in
the clients.

Secure your WLAN by applying
WEP to every AccessPoint and
client in your WLAN. Instead of
WEP, use the more secure
WPA if clients with a supplicant
(software) are available.
Always use the highest avail-
able security level and key
length (128 bits).
