Security Mode > RADIUS
This option features WEP used in coordination with a
RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS
server is connected to the device.)

server.
RADIUS Port Enter the port number of the RADIUS
server.
Shared Key Enter the key shared between the device
and its RADIUS server.
Encryption Select the appropriate level of encryption,
40/64-bit (10 hex digits) or 104/128-bit (26 hex digits).
A higher level of encryption is more secure.
Passphrase Instead of manually entering WEP keys, you
can enter a Passphrase. It is case-sensitive and should not be
longer than 32 alphanumeric characters. (This Passphrase
function is compatible with Linksys wireless products only
and cannot be used with Windows XP Zero Configuration.
If you want to communicate with non-Linksys wireless
products or Windows XP Zero Configuration, make a note
of the WEP keys generated, and enter the appropriate one
manually in the wireless computer or client.) If you want
to use a Passphrase, then enter it in the Passphrase field
and click the Generate button.
Keys 1-4 If you are not using a Passphrase, then manually
enter a set of values. (Do not leave a key field blank, and
do not enter all zeroes; they are not valid key values.) If
you are using 40/64-bit WEP encryption, the key must be
exactly 10 hexadecimal characters in length. If you are
using 104/128-bit WEP encryption, the key must be exactly
26 hexadecimal characters in length. Valid hexadecimal
characters are “0”-“9” and “A”-“F”.
TX Key To indicate which WEP key to use, select a default
Transmit (TX) Key number.
