There are two selectable options in Method pull-down menu:

WEP: Disable - Disable data encryption

WEP: Enable - Enable data encryption

If data encryption is enabled, there would be two available options in Key Length menu:

64-bit

128-bit

There are two ways to generate a security key. The first is by entering any text in the Passphrase

field. Click the Generate button. For 64-bit WEP, it will generate four keys, Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, and

Key 4. Select a key number from the dropdown list of the Default Key box. If you do not manually

select a key, key 1 will be selected. For 128-bit WEP, only one key will be generated. Click OK.

Another WEP key generation method is to insert the key values directly from the keyboard. Enter

your own key into one of the Key 1~4 fields. Select that field number in the Default Key field.

SNMP Access Control

WAP-5100 contains an SNMP access table to limit access to its configurations. By default there is no

restriction on accessing the AP. For security reason, access to WAP-5100 configuration should be

restricted to only those who require access.
