============= Test environment ============= kernel 2.6.5 ipw2100 driver 0.51 Fedora core 1 Presario X1000 Compaq laptop =================== Test procedure and result =================== If execute "iwconfig eth1 key <KEY5> [5]",the driver will replace the current active key value with KEY5,Although KEY5 should be an invalid key. steps: 1,configure a key[x],while the x<=4 %iwconfig eth1 key 2222222222 [2] %iwconfig eth1 key [2] %iwconfig ....... Encryption key:2222-2222-22 [2] Security mode:restricted ....... 2,set the KEY5 %iwconfig eth1 key 5555555555 [5] %iwconfig eth1 key [5] %iwconfig ......... Encryption key:5555-5555-55 [2] Security mode:restricted ......... from the result,we can see that the active key [2]'s value has been changed into KEY5,although we think that key [5] should be treated as an invalid key.
Fixed in v0.52.
Verified in ipw2100 v0.52. Set a key outside the range 1-4 will result in Invalid Argument.
