CHAPTER 11
WLAN Screens
11.1 Overview
A wireless LAN can be as simple as two computers with wireless LAN adapters
communicating in a peer-to-peer network or as complex as a number of computers with
wireless LAN adapters communicating through access points which bridge network traffic to
the wired LAN.
To add a wireless network to the ZyWALL, install a wireless card or connect a wireless device
such as an Access Point to one of the ZyWALL's Ethernet ports. This chapter describes
configuring one (or more) of the ZyWALL's Ethernet ports to use as a separate network for
connecting wireless devices. See Section 12.2 on page 232 for information on configuring
wireless LAN settings for a wireless card installed in the ZyWALL.
The following diagram shows the ZyWALL connecting to a wireless LAN through an AP.
