set dot1x wep-rekey 439

 

 

set dot1x

Enables or disables Wired Equivalency Privacy (WEP) rekeying for

wep-rekey

broadcast and multicast encryption keys.

 

Syntax set dot1X wep-rekey {enable disable}

 

„ enable — Causes the broadcast and multicast keys for WEP to be

 

rotated at an interval set by the set dot1x wep-rekey-period for

 

each radio, associated VLAN, and encryption type. The WX generates

 

the new broadcast and multicast keys and pushes the keys to the

 

clients via EAPoL key messages.

 

„ disable — WEP broadcast and multicast keys are never rotated.

 

Defaults — WEP key rotation is enabled, by default.

 

Access — Enabled.

 

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.

 

Usage — Reauthentication is not required for WEP key rotation to take

 

place. Broadcast and multicast keys are always rotated at the same time,

 

so all members of a given radio, VLAN, or encryption type receive the

 

new keys at the same time.

 

Examples — Type the following command to disable WEP key rotation:

 

WX4400# set dot1x wep-rekey disable

 

success: wep rekeying disabled
