LABEL

DESCRIPTION

 

QoS

Select the Quality of Service priority for this BSS’s traffic.

 

 

• In the pre-configured VoIP_SSID profile, the QoS setting is VoIP. This is

 

 

not user-configurable. The VoIP setting is available only on the

 

 

VoIP_SSID profile, and provides the highest level of QoS.

 

 

• If you select WMM from the QoS list, the priority of a data packet depends

 

 

on the packet’s IEEE 802.1q or DSCP header. See Section 6.3.1 on page

 

 

85 for more information on WMM and WMM priorities. If a packet has no

 

 

WMM value assigned to it, it is assigned the default priority.

 

 

• If you select ATC from the QoS list, the ZyXEL Device automatically

 

 

assigns priority based on packet size. See Section 6.3.2 on page 85 for

 

 

more information on ATC.

 

 

• If you select ATC+WMM from the QoS list, the ZyXEL Device uses WMM

 

 

on the wireless network and ATC on the wired network. See Section 6.3.3

 

 

on page 86 for more information on ATC+WMM.

 

 

• If you select WMM_VOICE, WMM_VIDEO, WMM_BEST_EFFORT or

 

 

WMM_BACKGROUND, the ZyXEL Device applies that QoS setting to all

 

 

of that SSID’s traffic.

 

 

• If you select NONE, the ZyXEL Device applies no priority to traffic on this

 

 

SSID.

 

 

Note: When you configure an SSID profile’s QoS settings,

 

 

the ZyXEL Device applies the same QoS setting to all

 

 

of the profile’s traffic.

 

 

 

 

Layer-2 Isolation

Select a layer 2 isolation profile from the drop-down list box. If you do not

 

 

want to use layer 2 isolation on this profile, select Disable. See Section 9.1

 

 

on page 123 for more information.

 

 

 

 

Intra-BSS Traffic

Select Enable from the drop-down list box to prevent wireless clients in this

 

blocking

profile’s BSS from communicating with one another.

 

 

 

 

MAC Filtering

Select a MAC filter profile from the drop-down list box. If you do not want to

 

 

use MAC filtering on this profile, select Disable. See Section 9.4 on page 128

 

 

for more information.
