Nortel Networks 2300 manual Encryption Configuration Scenarios, Assigning Static WEP Keys

212Configuring User Encryption

Assigning Static WEP Keys

When static WEP is enabled, static WEP key 1 is assigned to unicast and multicast traffic by default. To assign another key to unicast or multicast traffic, use the following commands:

set service-profile name wep active-multicast-index num set service-profile name wep active-unicast-index num

The num parameter specifies the key and the value can be from 1 to 4.

To configure an SSID that uses service profile wepsrvc to use WEP key index 2 for encrypting multicast traffic, type the following command:

23x0# set service-profile wepsrvc wep active-multicast-index 2

success: change accepted.

To configure an SSID that uses service profile wepsrvc4 to use WEP key index 4 for encrypting unicast traffic, type the following command:

23x0# set service-profile wepsrvc4 wep active-unicast-index 4

success: change accepted.

Encryption Configuration Scenarios

The following scenarios provide examples of ways in which you can configure encryption for network clients:

•“Enabling WPA with TKIP” on page 213

•“Enabling Dynamic WEP in a WPA Network” on page 215

•“Configuring Encryption for MAC Clients” on page 217
