Creating Seeds on the Router

Using the Technician Interface, you create one seed for the NPK using the

kseed

command. To store the seed in nonvolatile memory, execute the

kset npk

command. If you do not execute both of these commands, the encryption software

will not run.

Creating NPKs and LTSSs

After you generate the NPK and LTSS seeds, you open Site Manager on your

router’s management console and use the WEP Key Manager tool to generate

NPKs and LTSSs. You enter an NPK on each router, and in the Site Manager NPK

parameter. You enter the LTSSs in the MIBs of each router on a link.

Creating NPKs

To generate an NPK:

Start Site Manager.

Note that you open Site Manager after you set the path to the key files.

Select Tools > WEP Key Manager > NPK Manager.

In the NPK name box, type a name for the NPK.

Specify a name that identifies this router, perhaps by location; for example,

Boston.

Click on Generate.

Click on Add.

The NPK name and value appear in the NPK list box.

Repeat Steps 3, 4, and 5 to generate as many NPKs as you need.

After you finish, click on OK.

Site Manager saves the NPKs on the removable media you selected when you

set the key file path.
