Configuring WEP Parameters

WEP has both line and circuit interface parameters. WEP parameters have default

values. To customize WEP for your network, you can edit those values.

Configuring WEP Line Parameters

Enable encryption on this line:

The WEP Enable parameter defaults to Enable when you select WEP from the

Protocols menu. Both the WEP Enable parameter and the PPP or frame relay

Enable parameter must be set to Enable for WEP to function. (Instructions for

setting the Enable parameter for PPP can be found in the section “

Starting

Encryption for PPP” on 3-13. Instructions for setting this parameter for frame

relay can be found in the section “

Starting Encryption for Frame Relay” on

page 3-16.)

Select the encryption strength for this line.

Encryption is available in two versions, regular and strong. The standard

router software includes encryption that uses regular encryption, that is, 40-bit

keys. Bay Networks also offers a strong encryption option that uses 56-bit

keys. Strong encryption is generally available only in the United States and

Canada.
