34.3.2.3 Security List
This screen allows you to manage wireless security configurations that can be used by your SSIDs.
Wireless security is implemented strictly between the AP broadcasting the SSID and the stations that are
connected to it.
To access this screen click Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > Security List.
Band Select: To improve network performance and avoid interference in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, you
can enable this feature to use the 5 GHz band first. You should set 2.4GHz and 5 GHz radio
profiles to use the same SSID and security settings.
Select standard to have the AP try to connect the wireless clients to the same SSID using the 5
GHZ band. Connections to an SSID using the 2.4GHz band are still allowed.
Otherwise, select disable to turn off this feature.
Stop
Threshold
This field is not available when you disable Band Select.
Select this option and set the threshold number of the connected wireless clients at which the
Zyxel Device disables the band select feature.
Balance Ratio This field is not available when you disable Band Select.
Select this option and set a ratio of the wireless clients using the 5 GHz band to the wireless
clients using the 2.4 GHz band.
Forwarding Mode Select a forwarding mode (Tunnel or Local bridge) for traffic from this SSID.
VLAN ID If you selected Local Bridge forwarding mode, enter the VLAN ID that will be used to tag all
traffic originating from this SSID if the VLAN is different from the native VLAN. All the wireless
station’s traffic goes through the associated AP’s gateway.
VLAN Interface
If you selected the Tunnel forwarding mode, select a VLAN interface. All the wireless station’s
traffic is forwarded to the Zyxel Device first.
Hidden SSID Select this if you want to “hide” your SSID from wireless clients. This tells any wireless clients in the
vicinity of the AP using this SSID profile not to display its SSID name as a potential connection.
Not all wireless clients respect this flag and display it anyway.
When an SSID is “hidden” and a wireless client cannot see it, the only way you can connect to
the SSID is by manually entering the SSID name in your wireless connection setup screen(s)
(these vary by client, client connectivity software, and operating system).
Enable Intra-BSS
Traffic Blocking
Select this option to prevent crossover traffic from within the same SSID.
Schedule SSID Select this option and set whether the SSID is enabled or disabled on each day of the week.
You also need to select the hour and minute (in 24-hour format) to specify the time period of
each day during which the SSID is enabled/enabled.
OK Click OK to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device.
Cancel Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving your changes.
