be the default.
- Click to check the check box and enable public
secure packet forwarding if you want the protected port ot be
used for secure mode configuration.

EAP), only one WEP key (the multicast key) must be configured.
If you chose to enable WEP, enter 1 to 4 encryption keys by typing
in a 40- or 128-bit key value in the Encryption Key fields. If
you chose no encryption, skip to Step 7.
