DESCRIPTION

IP Subnet Mask

This is the LAN port IP subnet mask.

 

 

DHCP

This is the WAN port DHCP role - Server, Relay or None.

 

 

WLAN Information

 

 

 

SSID

This is the descriptive name used to identify the ZyXEL Device in the wireless

 

LAN.

 

 

Channel

This is the channel number used by the ZyXEL Device now.

 

 

Security

This displays the WLAN security mode.

 

 

Security

 

 

 

Firewall

This displays whether or not the ZyXEL Device’s firewall is activated.

 

 

Content Filter

This displays whether or not the ZyXEL Device’s content filtering is activated.

 

 

System Status

 

 

 

System Uptime

This is the total time the ZyXEL Device has been on.

 

 

Current Date/

This field displays your ZyXEL Device’s present date and time.

Time

 

 

 

System Mode

This displays whether the ZyXEL Device is functioning as a router or a bridge.

 

 

CPU Usage

This number shows how many kilobytes of the heap memory the ZyXEL Device is

 

using. Heap memory refers to the memory that is not used by ZyNOS (ZyXEL

 

Network Operating System) and is thus available for running processes like NAT,

 

VPN and the firewall.

 

The bar displays what percent of the ZyXEL Device's heap memory is in use. The

 

bar turns from green to red when the maximum is being approached.

 

 

Memory Usage

This number shows the ZyXEL Device's total heap memory (in kilobytes).

 

The bar displays what percent of the ZyXEL Device's heap memory is in use. The

 

bar turns from green to red when the maximum is being approached.

 

 

Interface Status

 

 

 

Interface

This displays the ZyXEL Device port types.

 

 

Status

This field displays Down (line is down), Up (line is up or connected) if you're using

 

Ethernet encapsulation and Down (line is down), Up (line is up or connected), Idle

 

(line (ppp) idle), Dial (starting to trigger a call) and Drop (dropping a call) if you're

 

using PPPoE encapsulation.

 

For the WLAN port, it displays Active when WLAN is enabled or Inactive when

 

WLAN is disabled.

 

 

Rate

For the LAN ports, this displays the port speed and duplex setting.

 

Ethernet port connections can be in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. Full-duplex

 

refers to a device's ability to send and receive simultaneously, while half-duplex

 

indicates that traffic can flow in only one direction at a time. The Ethernet port

 

must use the same speed or duplex mode setting as the peer Ethernet port in

 

order to connect.

 

For the WAN port, it displays the downstream and upstream transmission rate.

 

For the WLAN port, it displays the transmission rate when WLAN is enabled or N/

 

A when WLAN is disabled.

 

 

Summary

 

 

 

Any IP Table

Use this screen to view a list of IP addresses and MAC addresses of computers,

 

which are not in the same subnet as the ZyXEL Device.

 

 

WLAN Status

This screen displays the MAC address(es) of the wireless stations that are

 

currently associating with the ZyXEL Device.
