- Some Atheros scripts need random <acronym class="acronym">MAC</acronym>, <acronym class="acronym">DAK</acronym> or <acronym class="acronym">NMK</acronym> strings as arguments to Toolkit programs. Program <a class="ulink" href="rkey.7.html" target="_top">rkey</a> can be used for this purpose. We demonstrate one way to define symbols here and demonstrate how to use symbols later on.

- DAK=$(rkey secret.key -D)
- NMK=$(rkey secret.key -M)

- The first statement, above, uses program <a class="ulink" href="rkey.7.html" target="_top">rkey</a> to read file <code class="filename">secret.key</code> and compute a random <acronym class="acronym">DAK</acronym> (<strong class="userinput"><code>-D</code></strong>). The ouput string is assigned to symbol <acronym class="acronym">DAK</acronym>. The second statement uses program <a class="ulink" href="rkey.7.html" target="_top">rkey</a> to read the file <code class="filename">secret.key</code> and compute a random <acronym class="acronym">NMK</acronym> (<strong class="userinput"><code>-M</code></strong>). The output is assigned to symbol <acronym class="acronym">NMK</acronym>.
