The New Security Policy screen displays with the Manually Pre-shared key/No
authentication and No Encryption options selected. Naming and saving such a policy (as
is) would provide no security and might only make sense in a guest network wherein no
sensitive data is either transmitted or received. Consequently, at a minimum, a basic
security scheme (in this case WEP 128) is recommended in a network environment wherein
sensitive data is transmitted.
2. Ensure the Name of the security policy entered suits the intended configuration or function
of the policy.
Multiple WLANs can share the same security policy, so be careful not to name security
policies after specific WLANs or risk defining a WLAN to single policy. Motorola
recommends naming the policy after the attributes of the authentication or encryption type
selected.
3. Select the WEP 128 (104 bit key) checkbox.
The WEP 128 Settings field displays within the New Security Policy screen.
NOTE For information on configuring the other encryption and authentication
options available to the access point, see Configuring Security Options on
page 6-2.
