6.4 MAC Authentication

This screen allows you to configure the ZyXEL Device to give exclusive access to
specific devices (Allow) or exclude specific devices from accessing the ZyXEL
Device (Deny). Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control)
address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of
hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know the
MAC addresses of the devices to configure this screen.

DESCRIPTION
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the service set with which
a wireless device is associated. Wireless devices associating to the
access point (AP) must have the same SSID.
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 English keyboard characters) for
the wireless LAN.
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.
Select this check box to prevent the wireless client connected to the
ZyXEL Device from communicating with other wireless clients.
Select this check box to prevent wireless devices of other BSSIDs/
LAN to communicate with the wireless client.
Select this check box to allow the ZyXEL Device to convert wireless
multicast traffic into wireless unicast traffic.
Select Basic (WEP) or More Secure (WPA(2)-PSK, WPA(2)) to
add security on this wireless network. The wireless clients which
want to associate to this network must have same wireless security
settings as the ZyXEL Device. After you select to use a security,
additional options appears in this screen.
Or you can select No Security to allow any client to associate this
network without any data encryption or authentication.
