Enter a VLAN ID for the Zyxel Device to use to tag traffic originating from this SSID. Select this if you want to "hide" your SSID from wireless clients. This tells any wireless clients in the vicinity of the AP using this SSID profile not to display its SSID name as a potential connection. Not all wireless clients respect this flag and display it anyway. Enable Intra-BSS Traffic Blocking Enable U-APSD Enable Proxy ARP When a SSID is "hidden" and a wireless client cannot see it, the only way you can connect to the SSID is by manually entering the SSID name in your wireless connection setup screen(s) (these vary by client, client connectivity software, and operating system). Select this option to prevent crossover traffic from within the same SSID on the Zyxel Device. Select this option to enable Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD), which is also known as WMM-Power Save. This helps increase battery life for battery-powered wireless clients connected to the Zyxel Device using this SSID profile. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a protocol for mapping an IP address to a MAC address. An ARP broadcast is sent to all devices in the same Ethernet network to request the MAC address of a target IP address. 802.11k/v Assisted Roaming Schedule SSID OK Cancel Select this option to allow the Zyxel Device to answer ARP requests for an IP address on behalf of a client associated with this SSID. This can reduce broadcast traffic and improve network performance. Select this option to enable IEEE 802.11k/v assisted roaming on the Zyxel Device. When the connected clients request 802.11k neighbor lists, the Zyxel Device will response with a list of neighbor APs that can be candidates for roaming. Select this option and set whether the SSID is enabled or disabled on each day of the week. You also need to select the hour and minute (in 24-hour format) to specify the time period of each day during which the SSID is enabled/enabled. Click OK to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device. Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving your changes. 13.4 Security List This screen allows you to manage wireless security configurations that can be used by your SSIDs. Wireless security is implemented strictly between the AP broadcasting the SSID and the stations that are connected to it. To access this screen click Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > Security List. Note: You can have a maximum of 32 security profiles on the Zyxel Device. NWA/WAC/WAX Series User's Guide 140

Security List
This screen allows you to manage wireless security configurations that can be used by your SSIDs.
Wireless security is implemented strictly between the AP broadcasting the SSID and the stations that are
connected to it.
To access this screen click
Configuration > Object > AP Profile > SSID > Security List
.
Note: You can have a maximum of 32 security profiles on the Zyxel Device.
Uplink
Define the maximum outgoing transmission data rate (either in mbps or kbps) on a per-station
basis.
VLAN ID
Enter a VLAN ID for the Zyxel Device to use to tag traffic originating from this SSID.
Hidden SSID
Select this if you want to “hide” your SSID from wireless clients. This tells any wireless clients in the
vicinity of the AP using this SSID profile not to display its SSID name as a potential connection.
Not all wireless clients respect this flag and display it anyway.
When a SSID is “hidden” and a wireless client cannot see it, the only way you can connect to
the SSID is by manually entering the SSID name in your wireless connection setup screen(s)
(these vary by client, client connectivity software, and operating system).
Enable Intra-BSS
Traffic Blocking
Select this option to prevent crossover traffic from within the same SSID on the Zyxel Device.
Enable U-APSD
Select this option to enable Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD), which is
also known as WMM-Power Save. This helps increase battery life for battery-powered wireless
clients connected to the Zyxel Device using this SSID profile.
Enable Proxy ARP
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a protocol for mapping an IP address to a MAC
address. An ARP broadcast is sent to all devices in the same Ethernet network to request the
MAC address of a target IP address.
Select this option to allow the Zyxel Device to answer ARP requests for an IP address on behalf
of a client associated with this SSID. This can reduce broadcast traffic and improve network
performance.
802.11k/v Assisted
Roaming
Select this option to enable IEEE 802.11k/v assisted roaming on the Zyxel Device. When the
connected clients request 802.11k neighbor lists, the Zyxel Device will response with a list of
neighbor APs that can be candidates for roaming.
Schedule SSID
Select this option and set whether the SSID is enabled or disabled on each day of the week.
You also need to select the hour and minute (in 24-hour format) to specify the time period of
each day during which the SSID is enabled/enabled.
OK
Click
OK
to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device.
Cancel
