Sample Feature Applications

This section describes some possible scenarios and topologies that you can set up using your Zyxel

Device.

1.4.1

MBSSID

A Basic Service Set (BSS) is the set of devices forming a single WiFi network (usually an access point and

one or more WiFi clients). The Service Set IDentifier (SSID) is the name of a BSS. In Multiple BSS (MBSSID)

mode, the Zyxel Device provides multiple virtual APs, each forming its own BSS and using its own

individual SSID profile.

You can configure multiple SSID profiles, and have all of them active at any one time.

You can assign different wireless and security settings to each SSID profile. This allows you to

compartmentalize groups of users, set varying access privileges, and prioritize network traffic to and

from certain BSSs.

To the WiFi clients in the network, each SSID appears to be a different access point. As in any WiFi

network, clients can associate only with the SSIDs for which they have the correct security settings.

For example, you might want to set up a WiFi network in your office where Internet telephony (VoIP)

users have priority. You also want a regular WiFi network for standard users, as well as a ‘guest’ WiFi

network for visitors. In the following figure,

VoIP_SSID

users have QoS priority,

SSID01

is the WiFi network for

standard users, and

Guest_SSID

is the WiFi network for guest users. In this example, the guest user is

forbidden access to the wired Local Area Network (LAN) behind the AP and can access only the

Internet.
