Syntax

encryption-type [ccmp|keyguard|none|tkip-ccmp|wep128|web128-keyguard|wep64]

Parameters

encryption-type [ccmp|keyguard|none|tkip-ccmp|wep128|web128-keyguard|wep64]
encryption-type Configures the WLAN's data encryption parameters
ccmp Configures Advanced Encryption Standard Counter Mode CBC-MAC Protocol (AES-CCM/CCMP)
keyguard Configures Keyguard Mobile Computing Mode (MCM)
tkip-ccmp Configures the TKIP and AES-CCM/CCMP encryption modes
wep128 Configures WEP with 128 bit keys
wep128-keyguard Configures WEP128 as well as Keyguard-MCM encryption modes
wep64 Configures WEP with 64 bit keys. A WEP64 configuration is insecure when two WLANs are mapped to the same VLAN, and one uses no encryption while the other uses WEP.
