Start OTIST?
2
If an OTIST-enabled wireless client loses its wireless connection for more than ten
seconds, it will search for an OTIST-enabled AP for up to one minute. (If you manually
have the wireless client search for an OTIST-enabled AP, there is no timeout; click
Cancel
in the OTIST progress screen to stop the search.)
3
When the wireless client finds an OTIST-enabled AP, you must still click
Start
in the AP
OTIST
web configurator screen or hold in the
OTIST
button (for about two seconds) for
the AP to transfer settings.
4
If you change the SSID or the keys on the AP after using OTIST, you need to run OTIST
again or enter them manually in the wireless client(s).
5
If you configure OTIST to generate a WPA-PSK key, this key changes each time you run
OTIST. Therefore, if a new wireless client joins your wireless network, you need to run
OTIST on the AP and ALL wireless clients again.
4.5
MAC Filter
The MAC filter screen allows you to configure the ZyXEL Device to give exclusive access to
up to 32 devices (Allow) or exclude up to 32 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 address of the devices to configure
this screen.
To change your ZyXEL Device’s MAC filter settings, click
Network
>
Wireless LAN
>
MAC Filter
. The screen appears as shown.
