Configure Multiple SSID/VLAN/Security Mode Entries

4-142 Avaya Wireless AP-4/5/6 User’s Guide

NOTE:
If you have two or more SSIDs per interface with a security mode of
None, be aware that security being applied in the VLAN is not being
applied in the wireless network.

NOTE:
Some parameters on other pages must be configured for each
security mode to function. RADIUS server(s) must be configured to
support authentication of WPA, 802.1x or WEP clients. Encryption
keys must be configured for WEP clients if mixed mode is selected.

Enable WEP Encryption

Follow these steps to set up WEP encryption on an SSID/VLAN pair:

1. Set Security Mode to WEP (if necessary).

2. Enter Encryption Key 0 only; the transmit key (the key used to

encrypt outgoing data) will be automatically set to zero. Keep in
mind the following:

— For 64-bit encryption, an encryption key is 10 hexadecimal

characters (0-9 and A-F) or 5 ASCII characters (see

ASCII

Character Chart

).

— For 128-bit encryption, an encryption key is 26 hexadecimal

characters or 13 ASCII characters.

— For 152-bit encryption, an encryption key is 32 hexadecimal

characters or 16 ASCII characters.
