12.3 SSID
The SSID screens allow you to configure three different types of profiles for your networked APs: an SSID
list, which can assign specific SSID configurations to your APs; a security list, which can assign specific
Disassociate
Station Threshold
Set a minimum kick-off signal strength. When a wireless client’s signal strength is lower than
the specified threshold, the Zyxel Device disconnects the wireless client from the AP.
-20 dBm is the strongest signal you can require and -105 is the weakest.
Allow Station
Connection after
Multiple Retries
Select this option to allow a wireless client to try to associate with the AP again after it is
disconnected due to weak signal strength.
Station Retry
Count
Set the maximum number of times a wireless client can attempt to re-connect to the AP
Allow 802.11n/
ac/ax stations
only
Select this option to allow only 802.11 n/ac/ax clients to connect, and reject 802.11a/b/g
clients.
Blacklist DFS
channels in
presence of radar
This field is available if
802.11 Band
is set to
5G
and
Channel Selection
is set to
DCS
.
Enable this to temporarily blacklist the wireless channels in the Dynamic Frequency
Selection (DFS) range whenever a radar signal is detected by the Zyxel Device.
Enable 802.11d
Clear the checkbox to prevent the AP from broadcasting a country code, also called a
country Information Element (IE), in beacon frames. This makes the AP incompatible with
802.11d networks and devices.
802.11d is a WiFi network specification that allows the AP to broadcast a country code to
WiFi client. The country code indicates where the AP is located. If WiFi clients are unable to
connect to the AP due to an incompatible country code, you should disable 802.11d.
Multicast Settings
Transmission
Mode
Specify how the Zyxel Device handles wireless multicast traffic.
Select
Multicast to Unicast
to broadcast wireless multicast traffic to all of the wireless clients
as unicast traffic. Unicast traffic dynamically changes the data rate based on the
application’s bandwidth requirements. The retransmit mechanism of unicast traffic
provides more reliable transmission of the multicast traffic, although it also produces
duplicate packets.
Select
Fixed Multicast Rate
to send multicast traffic to all wireless clients at a single data
rate. You must know the multicast application’s bandwidth requirements and set it in the
following field.
Multicast
Rate(Mbps)
If you set
Transmission Mode
to
Fixed Multicast Rate
, select a data rate at which the Zyxel
Device transmits multicast packets to wireless clients. For example, to deploy 4 Mbps video,
select a fixed multicast rate higher than 4 Mbps.
Minimum WLAN Rate
Control Setting
Sets the minimum data rate that 2.4Ghz WiFi clients can connect at, in Mbps. At the time of
write, allowed values are: 1, 2, 5. 5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54.
Sets the minimum data rate that 5Ghz WiFi clients can connect at, in Mbps. At the time of
write, allowed values are: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54.
Increasing the minimum data rate can reduce network overhead and improve WiFi
network performance in high density environments. However, WiFi clients that do not
support the minimum data rate will not be able to connect to the AP.
