Configuring WEP 301Setting Static WEPKey ValuesMSS supports dynamic WEP automatically. To enable static WEP,configure WEP keys and assign them to unicast and multicast traffic. Youcan set the values of the four static WEP keys, then specify which of thekeys to use for encrypting multicast frames and unicast frames. If you dothis, MSS continues to support dynamic WEP in addition to static WEP.To set the value of a WEP key, use the following command:set service-profile name wep key-index num key valueThe key-index num parameter specifies the index you are configuring.You can specify a value from 1 through 4.The key value parameter specifies the hexadecimal value of the key. Typea 10-character ASCII string (representing a 5-byte hexadecimal number)or type a 26-character ASCII string (representing a 13-byte hexadecimalnumber). You can use numbers or letters. ASCII characters in thefollowing ranges are supported: 0 to 9 A to F a to fTo configure WEP key index 1 for radio profile rp1 to aabbccddee, typethe following command:WX1200# set service-profile rp1 wep key-index 1 keyaabbccddeesuccess: change accepted.Assigning Static WEPKeysWhen static WEP is enabled, static WEP key 1 is assigned to unicast andmulticast traffic by default. To assign another key to unicast or multicasttraffic, use the following commands:set service-profile name wep active-multicast-index numset service-profile name wep active-unicast-index numThe num parameter specifies the key and the value can be from 1 to 4.To configure an SSID that uses service profile wepsrvc to use WEP keyindex 2 for encrypting multicast traffic, type the following command:WX1200# set service-profile wepsrvc wepactive-multicast-index 2success: change accepted.
