If you enter 900, for example, the access
point sends a new broadcast WEP key to
all associated client devices every 15
minutes.
If you enter 0, you disable broadcast
WEP key rotation.
Yes—Allows any device, regardless of
its WEP keys, to authenticate and
attempt to associate. This is the
recommended setting.
No—Does not allow any device,
regardless of its WEP keys, to
authenticate and attempt to associate.
Yes—Tells the access point to send a
plain-text, shared key query to any
device attempting to associate with the
access point. This query can leave the
access point open to a known-text attack
from intruders. This is not as secure as
the Open setting.
No—Does not allow the access point to
send a plain-text, shared key query to
any device attempting to associate with
the access point.
