Field Description

Key Index

Use the drop-down list here to select one of the Key Content fields
below (Key 1, Key 2, etc). A maximum of four different Keys (1, 2, 3, or
4) are available. The number of keys is determined by what is selected
in the ESS Authentication and Encryption Status fields.

The Key selected here must match the key selected in the client. For
example, if you select Key 1 here you have to select Key 1 for the
client.

The default is 1.

Enter key content in these fields. The Key Content format is selected in
the Key Input Method field.

For the key content, the phrase is auto-generated by the password
entered in the Pass Phrase field. For non-Motorola clients, you will use
these Keys (and not Pass Phrase) when using WEP for security. The
Key will not automatically fill in until you have clicked Apply.

If you have selected Hexadecimal or ASCII formatting (in the Key Input
Method field), you can then enter your own Hexadecimal or ASCII
keys. To enter keys manually, you must also have WEP64 or WEP128
selected in the Encryption Status field.

For WEP64 keys, 5 case sensitive ASCII characters are allowed or

10 hexadecimal characters (using only characters 0-9 and A-F)

For WEP128 keys, 13 case sensitive ASCII characters are allowed

or 26 hexadecimal characters (using only characters 0-9 and A-F)

If entering a key manually, don’t leave a key field blank or enter all 0’s.
These are not secure keys.

Group Key
Renewal Interval

This is the number of seconds that pass until your router sends out a
new group key. Only available if WPA or 802.1X are selected.

The default is 300 seconds.

RADIUS Server
Port Number

WEP128, and 802.1X is enabled

WPA is selected and TKIP or AES is selected.

The default RADIUS Port Number is 1812.
