Creating NPKs and LTSSs
After you generate the NPK and LTSS seeds, you open Site Manager and use the
WEP Key Manager tool to generate NPKs and LTSSs. You enter an NPK on each
router, and in the Site Manager NPK parameter. You enter the LTSSs in the MIBs
of each router on a link.
Creating NPKs
To generate an NPK:
1. Start Site Manager.
Note that you open Site Manager after you set the path to the key files.
2. Select Tools > WEP Key Manager > NPK Manager.
3. In the NPK name box, type a name for the NPK.
Specify a name that identifies this router, perhaps by location, for example,
Boston.
4. Click on Add.
The NPK name and value appear in the NPK list box.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to generate as many NPKs as you need.
6. After you finish, click on OK.
Site Manager stores these values on the removable media you selected when
you set the key file path. Site Manager does not save the NPKs until you click
on OK.
The file name that stores NPKs on both PC and UNIX platforms is
wep_npk.dat
Caution: Do not attempt to edit this file. If you do, the NPKs may become
invalid.
