For ‘wep’ type,
WEPAutoGenerateKey: whether use a pass phrase to
generate WEP keys (‘enable’, ‘disable’).
WEPPassPhrase: WEP key pass phrase if
‘WEPAutoGenerateKey’ is ‘enable’.
WEPPassPhraseLength
: the length of keys that
should be generated from the pass phrase if
‘WEPAutoGenerateKey’ is ‘enable’.
If ‘WEPAutoGenerateKey’ is ‘disable’, the 4 WEP
keys should be specified. For each WEP key i,
WEPKeyiType
specifies the key type, including
length and format, and WEPKeyi
specifies the key
value. The key length can be 64, 128, or 158. The
format can be ASCII or HEX. So the available key
type is ‘ascii-64’, ‘ascii-128’, ‘ascii-152’, ‘hex-64’, ‘hex-
128’, and ‘hex-152’. For an ASCII format key, the key
value is the string at the right hand side of the equal
sign. For a HEX format key, the format is like xx-xx-
…-xx, where each xx is one byte and represented in 2
hexadecimal digits.
WEPSelectKey: select which key to use (1, 2, 3, 4).
For ‘802.1x’ type,
8021xRekeyLen
: the key length for dynamic re-
keying, disable means no re-key (‘disable’, 64, 128,
152).
8021xRekeyInterval
: re-key interval if
‘8021xRekeyLen’ is not ‘disable’, 0 means only setting
key once (unit: sec).
For ‘wpa-psk’ type,
WPAPSKKey: the pre-shared key (8 ~63 characters)
For both ‘wpa-psk’ and ‘wpa’ types
WPAEncryptionTypp: encryption protocol types
(‘tkip’, ‘ccmp’, ‘both’).
WPAGroupRekeyInterval: group key re-key interval
(unit: sec).
[OperationMode]
OpMode=gateway
Operational Mode Configuration
OpMode: the operational mode setting (‘ap’ – WLAN
access point only, ‘gateway’ – internet gateway +
WLAN access point, ‘wds’ – internet gateway +
wireless access point with WDS support).
