Step 3: Security Tab 

To maintain the secure management in a wireless LAN environment, click the 

Security tab to define the encryption  settings for a specific profile. This tab offers you 

various options concerning the so-called WEP (Wired Eq uivalent Privacy). 

a)  Define the Authentication Type  as WEP. 

b)  Specify the key length from the two offered options:  64 bit or 128 bit from 

the Encryption (WEP security) drop-down menu. 

c)  Now you  may choose to edit WEP keys manually or create them via the 

passphrase of your wireless network. If you choose the  Create Keys 

Manually option, you may directly enter up  to 4 WEP keys for use in WEP 

encryption. To generate the WEP keys, please define the key entry method as 

Alphanumeric or Hexadecimal (for hexadecimal characters, only digits 0-9 

and letters A-F are valid).   

d)  Then edit the texts in the blank fields below, from  Key 1 to  Key 4, as the 

encryption codes. Note that these codes/keys shall be identical between the 

wireless nodes within the range and the access point only.   

e)  Indicate which WEP key you intend to apply to activate the WEP encryption 

from the  Use WEP Key drop-down menu. Make sure that the intended 

access point on the wireless network shares the same keys.
