10.7.1 SSID Profile

Configure wireless network security by configuring and applying an SSID profile. You can configure multiple profiles but you can only apply one to your network.

Use the Wireless Card screen to see information about the SSID profiles on the ZyWALL, and use the Wireless Card > Edit screen to configure the SSID profiles.

Each SSID profile references the settings configured in the following screens:

WIRELESS > Wi-Fi> Security (one of the security profiles).

AUTH SERVER > RADIUS (the RADIUS server settings).

WIRELESS > Wi-Fi> MAC Filter (the MAC filter list, if activated in the SSID profile).

Configure the fields in the above screens to use the settings in an SSID profile.

In the Wireless Card screen, click the edit icon next to an SSID profile to display the following screen.
