6.4 Wireless Security Overview
Wireless security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless
stations, access points and the wired network.
The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your ZyXEL Device. EAP
(Extensible Authentication Protocol) is used for authentication and utilizes dynamic WEP key
exchange. It requires interaction with a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service) server either on the WAN or your LAN to provide authentication service for wireless
stations.
If you do not enable any wireless security on your ZyXEL Device, your network is accessible
to any wireless networking device that is within range.
6.5 Configuring Wireless Security
