NOTE: PLEASE CONSULT YOUR NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR FOR ASSISTANCE IN CON-
FIGURING THESE ADVANCED SECURITY OPTIONS.
In addition to WPA and 802.1x, there are the options to enable WEP (Pre-Shared Key) or the new
Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK) on your wireless LAN. For WEP (Wired Equiva-
lent Privacy) security, the SMC2536W-AG Utility supports HEX and ASCII key entries.
For the HEX Key Format, the security is enabled by entering 10-digit keys for the 64-bit WEP con-
figuration, 26-digit keys for a 128-bit WEP configuration, and 32-digit keys for a 152-bit WEP configu-
ration. Allowed hex keys are 0-9 and A-F. For the ASCII Key Format, the security is enabled by en-
tering 5 characters for 64-bit WEP, 13 characters for 128-bit WEP and 16 characters for 152-bit WEP.
Click Pre-Shared Key and select the [Configure] button to enter in WEP keys.
Select the desired encryption strength from the drop-down menu on the right (64-, 128- or 152-bit)
and then enter the appropriate keys in Key 1, 2, 3, or 4. Remember to select the correct radio button
on the left. Then click [OK].
