Important Notes
Select WEP Key 1 as Transmit Key for EAP Authentication
If you use Network-EAP as the authentication type on your wireless network, you must select key 1 as
the transmit key on the access point AP Radio Data Encryption page. The access point uses the WEP key
you enter in key slot 1 to encrypt multicast and broadcast data signals that it sends to EAP-enabled client
devices. Because the access point transmits the WEP key used for multicast messages to the
EAP-enabled client device during the EAP authentication process, that key does not have to appear in
the EAP-enabled device’s WEP key list. The access point uses a dynamic WEP key to encrypt unicast
messages to EAP-enabled clients. When you set up a repeater access point to authenticate as a LEAP
client, the repeater derives a dynamic WEP key and uses it to communicate with the root access point.
Repeaters not set up for LEAP authentication use static WEP keys when communicating with other
access points.

Note
If you do not use EAP authentication on your wireless network, you can select any WEP key as the
transmit key. If you use EAP authentication and you enable broadcast key rotation, you can enable
WEP without entering WEP keys.

Set Flow Control to None or Xon/Xoff When Using Terminal Emulator
The terminal emulator flow control setting for 1200 series access points (none or Xon/Xoff) differs from
the flow control setting for 340 and 350 series access points and 350 series bridges (none, Xon/Xoff, or
Hardware).
the flow control setting for 340 and 350 series access points and 350 series bridges (none, Xon/Xoff, or
Hardware).
To use a terminal emulator to open the 1200 series access point’s command-line interface (CLI), use
these settings for the terminal emulator connection:
these settings for the terminal emulator connection:
•
9600 baud
•
8 data bits
•
No parity
•
1 stop bit
•
No flow control or Xon/Xoff
Cisco Discovery Protocol Re-Enabled for Individual Interfaces on Reboot
The Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) feature is enabled by default, and CDP is enabled for each of the
access point’s individual interfaces by default. However, if you disable CDP for one of the individual
interfaces, the access point re-enables CDP for that interface when it reboots. If you disable CDP
completely, the access point does not re-enable CDP on reboot.
