Configure the WEP key
© Click ▼ for the "WEP Key" setting in the right side of the window.
® Select an item from the pull-down menu.
■This setting determines the method used to encrypt data transferred
during wireless communication. Typically, 64-bit and 128-bit WEP
keys are used. (128-bit WEP sets tighter security)
■ You can select either of the two WEP keys or select not to use an
encryption key. If you are connecting the network camera to an existing
wireless LAN that uses a WEP key, set the same WEP key to the
network camera.
^NOTE
• WEP setting is not mandatory. Do not perform the WEP setting if you are
not using WEP with your current wireless LAN.
• When you use encryption with the WEP key for the network camera, select
the items for "Encryption" and "WEP Key" correctly. There are rules for entering
the WEP keys used for wireless data encryption. Enter a 10-byte (hexadecimal
digits) or 5-byte (ASCII text) character string for the 64-bit WEP key, and a
26-byte (hexadecimal digits) or 13-byte (ASCII text) character string for the
128-bit WEP Key. Configure the WEP Key by referring tables below.
• Sometimes "64-bit WEP" is described as "40-bit WEP", in here, we use the
term "64-bit WEP." This means that other wireless devices using 40-bit WEP
are using the same level of security as and are compatible with devices that
use 64-bit WEP.
• When you do not perform encryption of the data by WEP, your wireless
communication could be intercepted easily by third party. By using WEP for
your data encryption, it becomes very difficult to decode the data. Because
of this, it is recommended to do WEP setting if you are using wireless
communication.
