WEP 128 and Keyguard Deployment Considerations

WEP 128 and KeyGuard

Generate Keys

Specify a 4 to 32 character pass key and select the Generate

button. The pass key can be any

alphanumeric string. The access point, other proprietary routers, and Brocade 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 areas to specify key numbers. For WEP 128 (104-bit key), the keys are 26
hexadecimal characters in length. Select one of these keys for default activation by selecting its
radio button. Select Show to display the actual characters comprising the key.

Restore Default WEP Keys

If you feel it necessary to restore the WEP algorithm back to its default settings, select the Restore
Default WEP Keys

button.
