Interface Configuration (Wireless-VAP)

• If you use WEP key encryption option, the access point uses the transmit 

key to encrypt multicast and broadcast data signals that it sends to client 
devices. Other keys can be used for decryption of data from clients.

• When using IEEE 802.1X, the access point uses a dynamic key to encrypt 

unicast and broadcast messages to 802.1X-enabled clients. However, 
because the access point sends the keys during the 802.1X authentication 
process, these keys do not have to appear in the client’s key list.
