Wireless security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless 
stations, access points and other wireless.

The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your ZyWALL. EAP 
(Extensible Authentication Protocol) is used for authentication and utilizes dynamic WEP key 
exchange. It requires interaction with a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User 
Service) server either on the WAN or your LAN to provide authentication service for wireless 
stations.

Wireless Card

Select LAN to use the wireless card as part of the LAN. 
Select DMZ to use the wireless card as part of the DMZ. 
Select WLAN to use the wireless card as part of the WLAN. 
The ZyWALL restarts after you change the wireless card setting.

Note: If you set the wireless card to be part of the LAN or DMZ, you 

can still use wireless access, but not the WLAN interface in 
the firewall. The firewall will treat the wireless card as part of 
the LAN or DMZ respectively.
