The More AP Screen
The ZyXEL Device can broadcast up to four wireless network names at the same
time. This means that users can connect to the ZyXEL Device using different
SSIDs. You can secure the connection on each SSID profile so that wireless clients
connecting to the ZyXEL Device using different SSIDs cannot communicate with
each other.
This screen allows you to enable and configure multiple Basic Service Sets (BSSs)
on the ZyXEL Device.
Click

is the rate at which the RADIUS
server
sends a new group key out to all clients.
Encryption
If the security mode is
WPA
, the encryption mode is set to
TKIP
to
enable Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) security on your
wireless network.
If the security mode is
WPA2
, the encryption mode is set to
AES
to
enable Advanced Encryption System (AES) security on your wireless
network. AES provides superior security to TKIP.

Active
This field indicates whether this SSID is active. A yellow bulb signifies
that this SSID is active. A gray bulb signifies that this SSID is not active.
SSID
An SSID profile is the set of parameters relating to one of the ZyXEL
Device’s BSSs. The SSID (Service Set IDentifier) identifies the Service
Set with which a wireless device is associated.
This field displays the name of the wireless profile on the network. When
a wireless client scans for an AP to associate with, this is the name that
is broadcast and seen in the wireless client utility.

The WPS Screen
Use this screen to configure WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) on your ZyXEL Device.
WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without
having to configure security settings manually. Set up each WPS connection
between two devices. Both devices must support WPS. See
Section 6.7.6.3 on
page 135
for more information about WPS.
Note: The ZyXEL Device applies the security settings of the
SSID1
profile (see
Section 6.2 on page 113
). If you want to use the WPS feature, make sure you
have set the security mode of
SSID1
to
WPA-PSK
,
WPA2-PSK
or
No Security
.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame
so a station cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site
survey tool.
