The IEEE 802.11 standard on wireless LANs was designed to provide an
easy to use, and easy to install wireless network, that would allow users to
combine wireless LAN products from different vendors.
The drawback of easy access and interoperability is the vulnerability to
unauthorized access to and/or use of your network. Although WEP
encryption provides a good way to secure access to your wireless data,
there are a few things you need to know to ensure your network provides
the right level of security.
When you enable WEP encryption there are two modes of WEP operation:
•
Enable encryption & deny non-encrypted data
•
Enable encryption & allow non-encrypted data
For optimal security, you are advised always to use the
'HQ\ QRQ
HQFU\SWHG GDWD
option (=default).
