Static WEP Configuration
The WEP is a security algorithm defined in the initial wireless LAN standard.
It provides security by using a cryptographic key and Initial Vector (IV) to encrypt the
wireless transmission data exchanged between an AP and a wireless terminal connected to
a wireless LAN.
Configuration using CLI
For static WEP configuration, execute the following commands.
1) Go to configure
wlan configuration mode of CLI.
WEC8500# configure terminal
WEC8500/configure# wlan 1
2) Go to security configuration mode and initialize the configuration.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1# security
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# setDefault
3) Disable WPA1, WPA2, and 802.1x authentication.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# no wpa
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# no wpa2
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# no ieee8021x
4) Enable the WEP.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# wep
5) Configure the WEP Shared Key mode.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# wep shared
6) Use the following command to configure the cryptographic key of WEP.
WEC8500/configure/wlan 1/security# wep encryption [KEY_TYPE]
[KEY_STRING] [KEY_INDEX] [KEY_LENGTH]
