Configuring Advanced WLAN Settings
In the Advanced section of a WLAN’s Edit screen, you can establish more specialized
settings for a WLAN.
This section will explain how to configure:
■ control over inter-station traffic
■ closed system operations
■ inactivity timeouts
You will learn how to configure other advanced settings, which deal with QoS
capabilities, in “Traffic Management (QoS)” on page 4-88.
Controlling Inter-Station Traffic
Often, a wireless network serves simply to connect mobile users to your Ethernet
network or to the Internet. In this case, wireless stations primarily need to commu-
nicate with the Wireless Edge Services zl Module and servers in the wired network;
they do not need to communicate with other wireless stations. However, by default
they are allowed to do so (albeit through their RPs since infrastructure mode requires
that wireless stations send all traffic to the RP).
