1. Set the Security Mode

USR5453-AP#set interface wlan0 security static-wep

2. Set the Transfer Key Index

The following commands set the Transfer Key Index to 4.

USR5453-AP# USR5453-AP# USR5453-AP# USR5453-AP#

set interface wlan0 wep-default-key 1 set interface wlan0 wep-default-key 2 set interface wlan0 wep-default-key 3 set interface wlan0 wep-default-key 4

3. Set the Key Length

For the CLI, valid values for Key Length are 40 bits or 104 bits.

Note

The Key Length values used by the CLI do not include the initialisation vector in the length. On the Web User Interface, longer Key Length values may be shown which include the 24-bit initialisation vector. A Key Length of 40 bits (not including initialisation vector) is equivalent to a Key Length of 64 bits (with initialisation vector). A Key Length of 104 bits (not including initialisation vector) is equivalent to a Key Length of 128 bits (which includes the initialisation vector).

To set the WEP Key Length, type one of the following commands:

To set the WEP Key Length to 40 bits:

set

interface

wlan0

wep-key-length

40

To set the WEP Key Length to 104 bits:

set

interface

wlan0

wep-key-length

104

In this example, you will set the WEP Key Length to 40.

USR5453-AP#set interface wlan0 wep-key-length 40

4. Set the Key Type

Valid values for Key Type are ASCII or Hex. The following commands set the Key Type.

To set the Key Type to ASCII:

set

interface

wlan0

wep-key-ascii

yes

To set the Key Type to Hex:

set

interface

wlan0

wep-key-ascii

no
