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 field.

The Key selected here must match the Key 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 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.
