Command Usage
• To enable Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), use the auth shared-key
command to select the “shared key” authentication type, use the
encryption command to enable data encryption, use the key command to
configure at least one key, and use the transmit-key command to assign a
key to one of the VAP interfaces.
• If you enable Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) with a pre-shared key
option, use the encryption command to enable data encryption, use the
key command to configure at least one key, and use the transmit-key
command to assign a key to one of the VAP interfaces.
• If WEP or WPA/WPA2 with a pre-shared key option is enabled, all wireless
clients must be configured with the same shared keys to communicate with
the access point.
