1:Although WEP keys are not needed for WPA, you must enable WEP encryption through the web or CLI in order to enable all types of encryption in the access point. For example, use the CLI encryption command to set Encryption = 64, 128 or 152, thus enabling encryption (i.e., all types of encryption) in the access point.
2:Do not use WEP unless the access point must support both WPA and WEP clients.
