Set the Encryption for the VLAN

Now that you have completed the configuration of the VLAN, you must set the
encryption for the VLAN. Complete these steps to set the encryption for the
VLAN.

1. Click Security to go to the Security Summary page.
2. From the Security menu, choose Encryption Manager.

The Encryption Manager page appears.

3. Choose the VLAN you are configuring from the Set Encryption Mode

and Keys for VLAN pull-down list.

4. In the Encryption Mode section, determine what encryption, if any,

wireless clients need to use when communicating with the access point.

5. If dynamic WEP key encryption is used (LEAP or EAP), only one WEP

key (the multicast key) must be configured.

6. If you chose to enable WEP, enter 1…4 encryption keys by typing in a 40-

or 128-bit key value in the Encryption Key fields. If you chose no
encryption, skip to Step 7.

7. Choose the encryption you want to use as the transmit key for ongoing

access point transmissions.

8. Click Apply.

TIP

This VLAN pull-down list appears only when you have VLANs enabled.
If no VLANs are present, the encryption settings apply to all SSIDs.
