23.4.1 Configuring MAC Address Filter
Your ZyAIR checks the MAC address of the wireless station device against a list of allowed or
denied MAC addresses. However, intruders could fake allowed MAC addresses so MAC-
based authentication is less secure than EAP authentication.
Follow the steps below to create the MAC address table on your ZyAIR.
1 From the main menu, enter 3 to open Menu 3 – LAN Setup.
Key 1 to Key 4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the ZyAIR and the wireless sta-
tions must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 ASCII
characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").
If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 ASCII
characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").
Note: Enter “0x” before the key to denote a hexadecimal key.
Don’t enter “0x” before the key to denote an ASCII key
Authen. Method Press [SPACE BAR] to select Auto, Open System Only or Shared Key Only
and press [ENTER].
This field is N/A if WEP is not activated.
If WEP encryption is activated, the default setting is Auto.

Edit Roaming
Configuration
Press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes to enable roaming on the ZyAIR if you have
two or more ZyAIRs on the same subnet.
Note: All APs on the same subnet and the wireless stations must
have the same ESSID to allow roaming.
Breathing LED Select Yes to enable the Breathing LED, also known as the ZyAIR LED.
The blue ZyAIR LED is on when the ZyAIR is on and blinks (or breaths) when
data is being transmitted to/from its wireless stations. Clear the check box to
turn this LED off even when the ZyAIR is on and data is being transmitted/
received.
Preamble Press [SPACE BAR] to select a preamble type. Choices are Long, Short and
Dynamic. The default setting is Long.
See the section on preamble for more information.
802.11 Mode Press [SPACE BAR] to select B Only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant
WLAN devices to associate with the ZyAIR.
Select G Only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the ZyAIR.
Select Mixed to allow either IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the ZyAIR. The transmission rate of your ZyAIR might
be reduced.
When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt “Press ENTER to confirm or ESC
to cancel” to save your configuration or press [ESC] to cancel and go back to the previous screen.
