9.5.5 Wireless LAN Advanced Setup
To configure advanced wireless settings, click the Advanced Setup button in the General
screen. 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).
Group Key Update
Timer
The WPA Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA-
PSK key management) or RADIUS server (if using WPA key management)
sends a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA
equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a
WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the WPA Group Key Update Timer is also
supported in WPA-PSK mode. The ZyXEL Device default is 1800 seconds (30
minutes).

notation.

between the external authentication server and the ZyXEL Device.
The key must be the same on the external authentication server and your ZyXEL
Device. The key is not sent over the network.
