etsysWPAConfigMulticastCipher

Module: ENTERASYS-WIFI-PROTECTED-ACCESS-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-WIFI-PROTECTED-ACCESS-MIB::etsysWPAConfigMulticastCipher

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.32.1.1.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-write

Description: This object indicates the multicast cipher suite selector the entity must use. The multicast cipher suite in the WPA Information Element shall take its value from this variable. It consists of an OUI (the three most significant octets) and a cipher suite identifier (the least significant octet).

The network administrator can always override the automatically selected multicast cipher suite by writing this object.

What is etsysWPAConfigMulticastCipher?

The cipher suite selector (a 3-byte OUI plus a 1-byte cipher ID) that the interface advertises for multicast/broadcast traffic in its WPA information element; an admin can override the automatically chosen cipher by writing this object directly, for example to force WEP-40 when allowing legacy clients.

Examples
