WEP provides a basic level of security, preventing unauthorized access to the
network, and encrypting data transmitted between wireless clients and an access
point. WEP uses static shared keys (fixed-length hexadecimal or alphanumeric
strings) that are manually distributed to all clients that want to use the network.
When you select to use WEP, be sure to define at least one static WEP key for user
authentication or data encryption. Also, be sure that the WEP shared keys are the
same for each client in the wireless network.
