Item Description
[Reauthenticate before
WEP key distribution]
Specify whether to make authentication when distributing the
WEP key.
By default, this check box is unchecked.
[WEP key change interval
(seconds)]
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] Specify the length of the WEP key to be distributed.
The default value is 5 bytes.
[Enable WEP] 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] 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 setting is disabled.

By default, the host name is not set.
[Port] Set the port number of the RADIUS server.
The default value is 1812.
[Shared Secret] Set the shared secret of the RADIUS server. Shared secret is a
password for communication between the access point and the
RADIUS server.
By default, the shared secret is not set.
[Time-out] Set a time-out value in seconds.
The default value is 20 seconds.
