Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To connect to a WLAN device in WEP shared-key authentication mode or dynamic WEP mode, run the wep key command to set a WEP key.

If the key is in hexadecimal notation, you can enter hexadecimal characters without entering 0x.

Precautions

The system displays the message only when the security profile has been bound to the other profiles.
