Description
If you want to generate keys for encryption, enter a word or group of
printable characters and click the Generate button. If WEP encryption is set
to 64 bit, each of the 4 key fields is populated with a key value. If WEP
encryption strength is set to 128 bit, only the first WEP key field is populated
with a key value.
Enter the WEP key value, in hexadecimal format, that the IP camera uses to
connect to the network.
Each wireless IP camera that accesses the same access point in a network
must have the same WEP key values.
Choose the appropriate value, Open System or Shared Key. Refer to the
documentation for your wireless card to determine the method to use.

access points can use both methods.

derived from this network key.
