SMC Networks SMC7004AWBR manual Configuring the Barricade

CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE

You can automatically generate encryption keys or you can manually enter the keys. For automatic 64-bit security, you enter a passphrase that is used to create four keys (as shown below). The automatic 128-bit security generates a single key by entering a passphrase. To manually configure the keys, enter five hexadecimal pairs for each 64-bit key, or enter 13 pairs for the single 128-bit key. (A hexadecimal digit is a number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.)

If you use encryption, then configure the same keys used for the Wireless Barricade on each of your wireless clients. Note that the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet.
