6.2.3 Restricted Access

The MAC Filter screen allows you to configure the AP to give exclusive access to devices
(Allow Association) or exclude them from accessing the AP (Deny Association).

6.2.4 Hide ZyWALL Identity

If you hide the ESSID, then the ZyWALL cannot be seen when a wireless client scans for local
APs. The trade-off for the extra security of "hiding" the ZyWALL may be inconvenience for
some valid WLAN clients. If you don't hide the ESSID, at least you should change the default
one.

6.3 Security Parameters Summary

Refer to this table to see what other security parameters you should configure for each
Authentication Method/ key management protocol type. You enter manual keys by first
selecting 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP from the WEP Encryption field and then typing the
keys (in ASCII or hexadecimal format) in the key text boxes. MAC address filters are not
dependent on how you configure these security features.
