8.10 Dynamic WEP Key Exchange

The AP maps a unique key that is generated with the RADIUS server. This key expires when the wireless
connection times out, disconnects or reauthentication times out. A new WEP key is generated each time
reauthentication is performed.
If this feature is enabled, it is not necessary to configure a default encryption key in the Wireless screen. You
may still configure and store keys here, but they will not be used while Dynamic WEP is enabled.
To use Dynamic WEP, enable and configure the RADIUS server (see section 8.17) and enable Dynamic
WEP Key Exchange in the Wireless screen. Ensure that the wireless station’s EAP type is configured to one
of the following:

• EAP-TLS
• EAP-TTLS
• PEAP

EAP-MD5 cannot be used with Dynamic WEP Key Exchange.
