CONFIGURATION SECTION 3
SECTION 3, CONFIGURATION 3-15
Field Description
Key Index There are up to 4 different Keys (1, 2, 3, or 4)
that can be selected, the amount determined by
what is selected in the ESS Authentication and
Encryption Status fields. You are selecting one
of the Key Content fields below. The Key
selected here must match between the router
and the client. For example, if you select Key 1
here you have to select Key 1 for the client.
Select the option that best matches your needs.
The default is 1.
Key Content
Key 1
Key 2
Key 3
Key 4
There are up to four fields available (Key 1 –
Key 4) that can be filled. The Key Content
format is selected in the Password Input
Format 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.
If you have selected Hexadecimal or ASCII
formatting (in the Key Input Method field), you
can then enter your own Hexadecimal or ASCII
keys. If entering keys manually, this also
depends on whether WEP64 or WEP128 is
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.
