DESCRIPTION
If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 characters
(ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each
key.
If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 characters
(ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each
key.
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from eavesdropping by
unauthorized wireless users. The values for the keys must be set up exactly the
same on the access points as they are on the wireless stations.
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and passwords in
order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 10 and 65535 seconds.
If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the
reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority.
The ZyWALL automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wireless network
after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to send the username and
password again before it can use the wireless network again. Some wireless clients
may prompt users for a username and password; other clients may use saved login
credentials. In either case, there is usually a short delay while the wireless client
logs in to the wireless network again.
This value is usually smaller when the wireless network is keeping track of how
much time each wireless station is connected to the wireless network (for example,
using an authentication server). If the wireless network is not keeping track of this
information, you can usually set this value higher to reduce the number of delays
caused by logging in again.
Click Local User to go to the Local User Database screen where you can view
and/or edit the list of users and passwords. Click RADIUS to go to the RADIUS
screen where you can configure the ZyWALL to check an external RADIUS server.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyWALL.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
