To change your ZyXEL device’s MAC filter settings, click the WIRELESS link under 
ADVANCED and then the MAC Filter tab. The screen appears as shown.

Idle Timeout

The ZyXEL device automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired 

network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the 

username and password again before access to the wired network is allowed. 

The default time interval is 3600 seconds (or 1 hour).

Authentication 

Databases

The authentication database contains wireless station login information. The 

trusted user database is the built-in database on the ZyXEL device. The RADIUS 

is an external server. Use this drop-down list box to select which database the 

ZyXEL device should use (first) to authenticate a wireless station. 
Before you specify the priority, make sure you have set up the corresponding 

database correctly first. 
Select Local User Database Only to have the ZyXEL device just check the built-

in trusted user database on the ZyXEL device for a wireless station's username 

and password. 
Select RADIUS Only to have the ZyXEL device just check the user database on 

the specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and password. 
Select Local first, then RADIUS to have the ZyXEL device first check the 

trusted user database on the ZyXEL device for a wireless station's username 

and password. If the user name is not found, the ZyXEL device then checks the 

user database on the specified RADIUS server.
Select RADIUS first, then Local to have the ZyXEL device first check the user 

database on the specified RADIUS server for a wireless station's username and 

password. If the ZyXEL device cannot reach the RADIUS server, the ZyXEL 

device then checks the trusted user database on the ZyXEL device. When the 

user name is not found or password does not match in the RADIUS server, the 

ZyXEL device will not check the trusted user database and the authentication 

fails.
