You can configure static WEP keys to provide security between the access points and the wireless end devices. To use static WEP keys, your radios must support WEP encryption. All access points and wireless end devices on a particular network must use the same WEP encryption type and the same WEP transmit key. You should periodically change this WEP transmit key to prevent an unauthorized person with a sniffing tool from monitoring your network and discovering the WEP key.
