10.9.4 WLAN Add/Edit Screen: WPA/WPA2 Security

With WPA or WPA2 security, each user can have a separate user name and password. The
ZyWALL uses an external RADIUS server or the ZyWALL's internal user account list to
authenticate the user names and passwords. To configure and enable WPA or WPA2 security,
click Network > Interface > WLAN > Add (or Edit) to open the WLAN Edit screen. Select
WPA-Enterprise or WPA2-Enterprise as the Security Type. The following figure shows
the security fields.

ZyWALL USG 300 User's Guide
DESCRIPTION
The ZyWALL automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired network
after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the username and
password again before access to the wired network is allowed.
The default time interval is 3000 seconds.
The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP sends a new group key
out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA equivalent of automatically
changing the group key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis.
Setting of the Group Key Update Timer is also supported in WPA-PSK mode. The
ZyWALL's default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
DESCRIPTION
Select what the ZyWALL uses to authenticate the wireless clients.
Select Auth Method to be able to specify an authentication method object that you
have already configured. The authentication method can have the ZyWALL check
a user's user name and password against the ZyWALL's local database, a remote
LDAP, RADIUS, a Active Directory server, or more than one of these. See
41 on page 617 for how to create authentication method objects.
Select Auth Server to be able to manually specify a RADIUS server's settings in
this screen instead of using an authentication method object.
This field displays if you set the Authentication Type field to Auth Method.
Select an authentication method object that defines how the ZyWALL authenticates
a wireless user. The ZyWALL's default configuration also includes an
authentication method object named "default" that you can use. You can configure
the "default" authentication method object, but it's default configuration uses the
ZyWALL's local database for authentication.
