ZyWALL 2 and ZyWALL 2WE

8.3Data Encryption with WEP

WEP encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless clients and the access points to keep network communications private. It encrypts unicast and multicast communications in a network. Both the wireless clients and the access points must use the same WEP key for data encryption and decryption. For wireless LAN setup, refer to section 7.7.

Your ZyWALL allows you to configure up to four 64-bit or 128-bit WEP keys but only one key can be enabled at any one time.

8.3.1Setting Up WEP

In order to configure and enable WEP encryption; click Wireless and the Wireless tab to the display the Wireless LAN screen.
