[Distribute WEP key]
check box
Specify whether to dynamically distribute the WEP key.
This check box is enabled when the 802.1X function is used.
By default, this check box is unchecked.
[Reauthenticate before
WEP key distribution]
check box
Specify whether to make authentication when distributing the
WEP key.
By default, this check box is unchecked.
[WEP key change interval
(seconds)]
edit box
Specify in seconds the interval with which the WEP key is
changed and distributed to each station
The default value is 600 seconds.
[Key Length]
radio button
Specify the length of the WEP key to be distributed.
The default value is 5 bytes.
[Enable WEP]
check box
WEP is short for Wired Equivalent Privacy. This function
encrypts communication data for improved security.
When this check box is selected, you must select one of
cryptographic keys 1 to 4 explained next and specify the
cryptographic key in the edit box.
A station that does not use WEP or whose key is inconsistent
cannot be connected to the access point.
The check box is selected by default.
[Keys 1 to 4]
edit box
Select one of the keys 1 to 4 and specify the WEP cryptographic
key.
Use an ASCII character string or hexadecimal number. Key
length must be 5 or 13 bytes. (The max key length depends on
the card.) The longer key becomes more secure.
All keys are set to “WEP00” by default. Please change it.
[RADIUS Server 1 to 4]

Enable or disable the RADIUS server setting.
The access point sends inquiries in order to valid RADIUS servers
until the authentication succeeds or fails.

By default, the IP address is not set.
[Port]
edit box
