WEP 128 Deployment Considerations
Before defining a WEP 128 supported configuration on a WLAN, refer to the following deployment
guidelines to ensure the configuration is optimally effective:
Generate Keys
Specify a 4 to 32 character Pass Key and click the Generate button. The pass key can be
any alphanumeric string. Brocade wireless devices and their connected clients use the
algorithm to convert an ASCII string to the same hexadecimal number. Clients without
Brocade adapters need to use WEP keys manually configured as hexadecimal numbers.
Keys 1-4
Use the Key #1-4 areas to specify key numbers. For WEP 128 (104-bit key), the keys are 26
hexadecimal characters in length. Select one of these keys for default activation by clicking
its radio button. Selecting Show displays a key in exposed plain text.
Restore Default WEP Keys
If you feel it necessary to restore the WEP algorithm back to its default settings, click the
Restore Default WEP Keys button.
