Parameter Description
Key Type and Key Type of key and the key itself, as follows:
•If Key Type=HEX, the Key must be a hexadecimal number. A hex digit
occupies four bits, so for WEP-64, a hex Key must be 10 digits (40 bits total).
For WEP-128, a hex Key must be 26 digits (104 bits total). For WPA-PSK, the
Key must be 64 digits (256 bits total).
•If Key Type=PASSPHRASE, the key must be the appropriate string that can
be converted to the correct key using the respective algorithms. For WEP-64,
a passphrase Key must be 5 characters/digits. For WEP-128, a passphrase
Key must be 13 characters/digits. For WPA-PSK, a passphrase Key must be
8 to 63 characters.
WEP Authentication For WEP only, Type of initial authentication used by the wireless access point:
• OPEN - Effectively no authentication to associate and connect; however, all
communications following the connection will be WEP-encrypted and
therefore the unit must still have the correct key specified.
• SHARED - Requires matching keys to establish the initial connection, which
involves a more detailed handshake transaction between the devices.
Afterwards, all communications are WEP-encrypted similar to open
authentication.
NOTE: This setting does not affect how you specify the Key Type and
Key. It controls how the unit attempts initial negotiations only. Both
OPEN and SHARED WEP require a valid key.
WEP Key Slot For WEP only, the slot associated with the specified Key.
Parameter Description
DHCP After
Connect
Causes the unit to attempt a DHCP-based IP network setup if the connection is
successful. Otherwise, IP network setup will be a separate task following the
connection (see IP Network Setup on page 2-11).
