WEP

(Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a wireless encryption protocol that encrypts data frames on

the wireless medium allowing for greater security in the wireless network. If WEP/Encryption
is required at this site, you must configure each Wireless Telephone to correspond with the
encryption protocol set up in the access points. Select the entries from the options below to
enable the Wireless Telephone to acquire the system.

Authentication

Open System

or

Shared Key

Key Information

Default Key

: Enter the key # specified for use by the Wireless Telephones. This will

40-bit

or

128-bit

depending on the key length specified for

use at this location.

Key 1-4

Cisco FSR

(Fast Secure Roaming) In order to provide the highest level of security without

compromising voice quality on Cisco Aironet wireless LAN access points, Avaya and Cisco
Systems have cooperated to implement the Fast Secure Roaming mechanism. FSR is designed
to minimize call interruptions for AVAYA Wireless Telephone users as they roam throughout a
facility. Existing Aironet 350, 1100, and 1200 APs may require a firmware upgrade to support
FSR. Cisco FSR requires advanced configuration of the Cisco access points in your site. See
your Cisco representative for detailed documentation on configuring your access points and
other required security services on your wired network. To configure Cisco FSR in your
AVAYA Wireless Telephone, you must enter a Radius Server username and password into
each handset.

Username:

Enter a username that matches an entry on your Radius server. Usernames

are alphanumeric strings, and can be entered using the alphanumeric string entry
technique.

Password:

Enter the password that corresponds to this Username.

WPA-PSK

: The security features of WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) using PSK (Pre-Shared

Key) are available and may be used if supported by the access points in the facility. Select
