WEP

Encryption

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides data encryption to prevent unauthorized

wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the wireless network.

Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

Key 1 to Key 4 If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 characters

(ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each

key.

If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 characters

(ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each

key.
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from eavesdropping by

unauthorized wireless users. The values for the keys must be set up exactly the same

on the access points as they are on the wireless stations.

ReAuthenticati

on Timer

Idle Timeout

The ZyWALL automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network after

a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the username and password

again before access to the wired network is allowed.
