Use `--setchan psk none` to turn off encryption. Use `--ch-set psk none` to turn off encryption.
Use `--setchan psk random` will assign a new (high quality) random AES256 key to the primary channel (similar to what the Android app does when making new channels). Use `--ch-set psk random` will assign a new (high quality) random AES256 key to the primary channel (similar to what the Android app does when making new channels).
Use `--setchan psk default` to restore the standard 'default' (minimally secure, because it is in the source code for anyone to read) AES128 key. Use `--ch-set psk default` to restore the standard 'default' (minimally secure, because it is in the source code for anyone to read) AES128 key.
All `ch-set` commands will default to the primary channel at index 0, but can be applied to other channels with the `ch-index` parameter:
```bash
meshtastic --ch-index 1 --ch-set name mychan --ch-set channel_num 4 --info
