Configuring Security Settings
• Client Filter — Specifies whether the stations that can access the VAP are restricted to a configured global list of
MAC addresses. You can choose one of these types of Client filter:
• Disabled — Does not use the Client filter.
• Local — Uses the MAC authentication list that is configured on the Client Filter page.
• RADIUS — Uses the MAC authentication list on an external RADIUS server.
• Channel Isolation — Check to enable the channel isolation.
When disabled, the wireless clients can communicate with one another normally by sending traffic through the WAP
device.
When enabled, the WAP device blocks communication between the wireless clients on the same VAP. The WAP
device still allows data traffic between its wireless clients and the wired devices on the network, across a WDS link,
and with other wireless clients associated with a different VAP, but not among the wireless clients
• Band Steer — Check to enable the band steer when both the radios are up. It effectively utilizes the 5-GHz band
by steering dual-band supported clients from the 2.4-GHz band to the 5-GHz band.
• It is configured on a per-VAP basis and needs to be enabled on both the radios.
• It is not encouraged on the VAPs with time-sensitive voice or video traffic.
• It does not consider the n-bandwidth of the radio. Even if the 5-GHz radio happens to use 20 MHz bandwidth,
it tries to steer clients to that radio.
• Scheduler — Select a scheduler profile from the list, VAP0 can't be associated to a scheduler profile.
• Guest Access Instance — Associate a CP instance to a VAP. The associated CP instance settings applies to users
who attempt to authenticate on the VAP. Select the instance name for each VAP you want to associate an instance
with.
A VAP can associate to one Guest Access Instance in Access Control > Guest Access page. You must configure
Note
a Guest Access Instance first.
Step 5
Click Apply.
Caution
After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and restarted. When this condition
happens, the WAP device may lose its connectivity. It is recommend that you change the WAP device settings
at this time.
To delete a VAP, check the VAP and click Delete. To edit a VAP, check the VAP and click Edit. To save your
Note
changes, click Apply when complete.
