Hi all,

can you help me please ?

do you think that is possible to view wep key in CLI mode on AP Cisco 1242 ? by default, the WEP Key is encrypted in the config file. I must connect a wireless PC at the customer but the customer don't know WEP Key.

Thank you for your quick answer.

Kind Regards,

Lorenzo.

I dont think that you can from the confg. But you can break wep pretty easy. Download aircrack-ng, generate some traffic and you can get the key in a few minutes. Or if your client uses windows zero config. You can pull the key from the reg file. I made a video doing this here:

Side note:

If you had a WLC you could:
