64 Bit
• If selected, data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. The receiving station must be set to 64 Bit
Encryption, and have the same Key value in the same position in
its key table. Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.
• Default Key - select the key you wish to be the default.
Transmitted data is ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key;
the other Keys are for decryption only.
Key Table:
This table is used when Encrypting and Decrypting data. All stations,
including this Access Point, always transmit data encrypted using
their default key. The key number (1, 2, 3, 4) is also transmitted. The
receiving station will use the key number (1, 2, 3, 4) to determine
which key value to use for decryption. If the key value does not
match the transmitting station, decryption will fail.
The easiest way to ensure there are no problems is to have every
Station, including the Access Point, use the same key table (all
entries identical). Then, it does not matter which key is used as the
default key.
128 Bit If selected, data is encrypted using the key before being transmitted.
The receiving station must be set to use 128 Bit Encryption, and have
the same Key value. Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.
WEP
Authentication
Options are "Open System" or "Shared Key".
Some Wireless cards and Access Points do not support both methods.
Check your documentation to determine the correct value to use.
