Constants

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_NONE
  Specifies that no cipher algorithm is enabled or supported

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_WEP40
  Specifies a Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm, which is the RC4-based algorithm that is specified in the 802.11-1999 standard. This enumerator specifies the WEP cipher algorithm with a 40-bit cipher key.

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_TKIP
  Specifies a Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) algorithm, which is the RC4-based cipher suite that is based on the algorithms that are defined in the WPA specification and IEEE 802.11i-2004 standard. This cipher also uses the Michael Message Integrity Code (MIC) algorithm for forgery protection.

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_CCMP
  Specifies an AES-CCMP algorithm, as specified in the IEEE 802.11i-2004 standard and RFC 3610. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the encryption algorithm defined in FIPS PUB 197.

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_WEP104
  Specifies a WEP cipher algorithm with a 104-bit cipher key

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_WPA_USE_GROUP
  Specifies a Wi-Fi Protected Access (802.11 WPA) Use Group Key cipher suite. For more information about the Use Group Key cipher suite, refer to Clause 7.3.2.25.1 of the IEEE 802.11i-2004 standard.

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_RSN_USE_GROUP
  Specifies a Robust Security Network (RSN) Use Group Key cipher suite. For more information about the Use Group Key cipher suite, refer to Clause 7.3.2.25.1 of the IEEE 802.11i-2004 standard.

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_WEP
  Specifies a WEP cipher algorithm with a cipher key of any length

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_IHV_START
  Specifies the start of the range that is used to define proprietary cipher algorithms that are developed by an independent hardware vendor (IHV)

• DOT11_CIPHER_ALGO_IHV_END
  Specifies the end of the range that is used to define proprietary cipher algorithms that are developed by an IHV
