© 2012 Meru Networks, Inc. Configuring Security 133
Example 802.11 WEP Configuration
The following example creates the profile named wep-voice that supports a static
128-bit WEP encryption for voice users. The static WEP key is defined as voice and
uses the third key index position on a user station’s WEP key definition.
default(config)# security-profile wep-voice
default(config-security)# allowed-l2-modes wep
default(config-security)# encryption-modes wep128
default(config-security)# static-wep key voice
default(config-security)# static-wep key-index 3
default(config-security)# exit
default(config)# exit
