Enabling WEP (Wireless Equivalent Privacy) means the MSS will only connect to an AP (in infrastructure mode) or communicate with other ad-hoc peers (in ad-hoc mode) that have been programmed with the same WEP key as the MSS. All wireless network traffic the MSS sends will be encrypted with its WEP key and any encrypted wireless network traffic the MSS receives will be decrypted with its WEP key. Disabling WEP causes the MSS to ignore its WEP key and only receive and transmit unencrypted network traffic.

Any configuration changes you make will not take place until you issue the Change 80211 Reset command.

Restrictions	Requires privileged user status.
	Only applies to the MSS-VIA and certain MSS4 models.

Parameters	Enabled
	Enables WEP.
	Disabled
	Disables WEP.
	Index

	num
	Enter an integer between 1 and 4. For two keys to match, both their key data
	and their index number must be identical.
	Key
	Sets the WEP key. The MSS allows both 40-bit and 128-bit keys, and will
	determine which key length is being set by the length of the key data.
