The
wlan_wep
module handles the WEP cryptographic requirements of the 802.11 protocol.
It does encapsulation and decapsulation of WEP-encoded 802.11 frames
and optionally calculates the WEP cipher.
The
wlan_wep
module is an 802.11 cryptographic plugin module for use by the
wlan(4)
module.
This module is automatically loaded if a WEP key is configured with
ifconfig(8).
Should the underlying network device not be capable of doing the WEP
calculations in hardware, the
wlan_wep
module will do the work.
