I want to know more about how WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) protocol for wireless securiysecurity. From this Wikipedia article I have got a basic Idea. But what is the initialize vector? Is some kind of token sent for each request? Or is the connecting device authenticated only once in the beginning or some kind of token sent for each request (equivalent to cookies for authentication in Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)?

I have tried to set up WEP security for my Wi-Fi. As per instructions from my ISP, I did the following:

Network Authentication - Open
WEP Encryption         - Enabled
Current Network Key    -1
Encryption Key         -64 bit
Network Key 1          -abcdefghij (10 characters)
Network Key 2          -
Network Key 3          -
Network Key 4          -

What are these network keys?
