2.2 Wireless LAN Security

Wireless LAN security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless
stations and the wired network.
The figure below shows the possible wireless security levels on your ZyXEL G-162/G-360. 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.
