Lantronix 2100E manual Property Description

	3: Getting Started
Property	Description
	communication partner before passing through messages or not (2 =
	open/none).
Encryption	Length of the encryption key and the security strength. WEP64 uses a 40
	bits/5 bytes key (option 1). WEP128 uses a 104 bits/13 bytes key (option 2).
Change key	Select (Y) Yes to modify the currently configured key.
Display Key	Select (Y) Yes to show the currently configured key/passphrase
Key type	Indicate whether the new key is in hexadecimal or passphrase format.
Enter key	Enter the new encryption key. The passphrase input is not the same as ASCII
	input (as used on some products). ASCII is translated directly into
	hexadecimal bytes according to the ASCII table. The WiBox 2100E
	passphrase is hashed using the Neesus Datacom algorithm (for WEP64) or
	MD5 (for WEP128).
	The passphrase input is safer because it is up to 63 chars long. ASCII input is
	a maximum of 5 (WEP64) or 13 (WEP128) characters long and limits the
	number of key combinations.
	Please refer to the other equipment’s manual to determine the passphrase
	input style recommended.
	Note: Lantronix recommends using a passphrase of 20 characters or more for
	maximum security.
TX Key index	Select the WEP key used for transmissions. Enter a value from 1 to 4.
TX Data rate	Select the Data Transmit rate. The value are 1 MB, 2 MB, 5.5 MB, 11 MB, 18
	MB, 24 MB, 36 MB, and 54 MB.

WPA: This firmware version allows only Pre-Shared Keys (PSK) for authentication and encryption. Topology must be set to Infrastructure for the WPA option to display.

Property	Description
Change key	Select (Y (Yes) to modify the currently configured key.
Display key	Select (Y) Yes at the prompt to show the currently configured key/passphrase
Key type	Indicate whether the new key is in hexadecimal or passphrase format.
Enter key	Enter the passphrase. The maximum length is 63 characters.
	Note: Lantronix recommends using a passphrase of 20 characters or more
	for maximum security.
Encryption	Set the type to the minimum required security level. The “+” sign indicates that
	the group (broadcast) encryption method is different from the pairwise
	(unicast) encryption (WEP and TKIP).
