WEP 64 Deployment Considerations
Before defining a WEP 64 supported configuration on a wireless controller WLAN, refer to the
following deployment guidelines to ensure the configuration is optimally effective:
Generate Keys
Specify a 4 to 32 character Pass Key and click the Generate button. The pass key can be any
alphanumeric string. Brocade wireless devices and their connected clients use the algorithm to
convert an ASCII string to the same hexadecimal number. Clients without Brocade adapters need to
use WEP keys manually configured as hexadecimal numbers.
Keys 1-4
Use the Key #1-4 fields to specify key numbers. For WEP 64 (40-bit key), the keys are 10
hexadecimal characters in length. Select one of these keys for default activation by clicking its
radio button. Selecting Show displays a key in exposed plain text.
Restore Default WEP Keys
If you feel it necessary to restore the WEP algorithm back to its default settings, click the Restore
Default WEP Keys button.
