Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Network Key

 

With WPA encryption methods, the WR850 can issue clients new

 

 

Rotation

 

encryption keys for multicast and broadcast packets on periodic

 

 

Interval:

 

basis. This field sets that periodic interval in seconds. Leave this

 

 

(ADVANCED)

 

field blank, or set the value to zero, to disable this periodic update.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: Network Key Rotation Interval is greyed out and unchangeable

 

 

 

 

unless WPA, WPA2, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK is Enabled.

 

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: 86400

 

 

WEP

 

Enables Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption.

 

 

Encryption:

 

Selecting Enabled engages WEP.

 

 

(ADVANCED)

 

 

 

 

Selecting Disabled disengages WEP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: WEP Encryption requires the entry of at least one WEP

 

 

 

 

Network Key (below).

 

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: Disabled

 

 

WEP Network

 

Sets up to four specific encryption keys which be used with WEP

 

 

Keys 1-4:

 

encryption. You can enter 64-bit keys or 128-bit keys:

 

 

(ADVANCED)

 

64-bit keys must be made up of either 5 case-sensitive ASCII

 

 

 

 

characters or 10 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F).

 

 

 

 

128-bit keys must be made up of either 13 case-sensitive

 

 

 

 

ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F).

 

 

 

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

1) You can only enter WEP Network Keys if WEP Encryption

 

 

 

 

(above) is Enabled.

 

 

 

 

2) Do not enter simple patters of numbers (e.g., all zeroes) as

 

 

 

 

WEP Network Keys. These keys would not be secure.

 

 

 

 

3) WEP Network Keys need not be entered if 802.1X

 

 

 

 

Authentication (above) is Enabled, since the RADIUS server

 

 

 

 

will dynamically generate keys.

 

 

 

 

4) If WEP Encryption and WPA Encryption (above) are

 

 

 

 

concurrently Enabled, Network Key slots 1 and 4 are reserved

 

 

 

 

for WPA functions and you will only be able to enter WEP

 

 

 

 

Network Keys into slots 2 and 3.

 

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: (blank)

 

 

Current WEP

 

Sets which WEP Network Key (above) will be used for encryption.

 

 

Network Key

 

Select from 1 to 4.

 

 

Index:

 

NOTE: If WEP Encryption and WPA Encryption (above) are

 

 

(ADVANCED)

 

concurrently Enabled, Network Key slots 1 and 4 are reserved for

 

 

 

 

WPA functions and the Current WEP Network Key Index will

 

 

 

 

only be able to select between 2 and 3.

 

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: 1
