Chapter 12 AP Profile Table 43 Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > Security List > Add/Edit Security Profile> Security Mode: enhanced- open (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Management Frame Protection This field is available only when you select wpa2 in the Security Mode field and set Cipher Type to aes. Data frames in 802.11 WLANs can be encrypted and authenticated with WEP, WPA or WPA2. But 802.11 management frames, such as beacon/probe response, association request, association response, de-authentication and disassociation are always unauthenticated and unencrypted. IEEE 802.11w Protected Management Frames allows APs to use the existing security mechanisms (encryption and authentication methods defined in IEEE 802.11i WPA/WPA2) to protect management frames. This helps prevent wireless DoS attacks. Select the check box to enable management frame protection (MFP) to add security to 802.11 management frames. Select Optional if you do not require the wireless clients to support MFP. Management frames will be encrypted if the clients support MFP. OK Cancel Select Required and wireless clients must support MFP in order to join the Zyxel Device's wireless network. Click OK to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device. Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving your changes.
