The WEP Mgmt tab enables you to set WEP parameters for each port.
Note: The settings on this tab window are interrelated. This means that selecting one may disable access to others.
Field Description
Network Profile
Enter the name of this record. This is the name that appears in the Configured Networks list and,
by default, is the same as the broadcast SSID. Note that there is nothing special about the name
"default." You could configure any other record similarly and it would behave the same way.
Network Name
This is the SSID of the access point. If the access point broadcasts its SSID, then this value may

manually enter the value here.
