Enabling Additional WEP Security Features
Using SNMP to Set Up WEP
You can use SNMP to set the WEP level on the access point. Consult the “Using
SNMP” section on page 2-24 for details on using SNMP.
Access points use the following SNMP variables to set the WEP level:
• dot11ExcludeUnencrypted.2
• awcDot11AllowEncrypted.2
Table 8-2 lists the SNMP variable settings and the corresponding WEP levels.
Note Access points do not use the SNMP variable dot11PrivacyInvoked, so it is
always set to disabled.
Enabling Additional WEP Security Features
You can enable three advanced security features to protect against sophisticated
attacks on your wireless network’s WEP keys. This section describes how to set
up and enable these features:
• Enabling Message Integrity Check (MIC)
• Enabling Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)
• Enabling Broadcast WEP Key Rotation
