CHAPTER 1

Introducing the WAP7205

1.1 Overview

The WAP7205 extends the range of your existing wired network without additional wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users. You can set up a wireless network with other IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac compatible devices. The WAP7205 is able to function both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks at the same time.

You can create the following connections using the WAP7205:

• LAN. You can connect network devices via the Ethernet port of the WAP7205 (A) so that they can communicate with each other and access the Internet.
- WLAN. Wireless clients can connect to the WAP7205 (A) to access network resources.

    style E fill:#cce5ff,stroke:#333
    style F fill:#cce5ff,stroke:#333
    style G fill:#cce5ff,stroke:#333

The WAP7205 also comes with one coaxial port that supports MoCA (Multimedia over Coax Alliance) technology (see Chapter 9 on page 59).

Use a (supported) web browser to manage the WAP7205.

1.2 Securing the WAP7205

Do the following things regularly to make the WAP7205 more secure and to manage the WAP7205 more effectively.

• Change the password. Use a password that's not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.

- Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the WAP7205 to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the WAP7205. You could simply restore your last configuration.

1.3 LEDs

The following sections describes the LEDs on the WAP7205.

The following figure is the front panel of the WAP7205. Use the LEDs to determine if the WAP7205 is behaving normally or if there are some problems on your network.

Figure 1 WAP7205 Front Panel and Rear Panel

The following table describes the behavior of the lights on the WAP7205.

MoCA White Or	MoCA port is connected and the WAP7205 detects another MoCA device.
LAN1~2 Green	On This port has a successful link to an Ethernet network.

1.4 Resetting the WAP7205

If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web Configurator, press the RESET button for more than 5 seconds to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password will be reset to the default key on the label behind the ZYXEL logo plate.

1.4.1 RESET Button

1 Make sure the power LED is on.
2 Press and hold the RESET button. After 5 seconds, the power LED begins flashing.
3 Release the RESET button. The WAP7205 reloads factory defaults and begins to reboot.

1.5 WPS Button

Your WAP7205 supports WiFi Protected Setup (WPS), which is an easy way to set up a secure wireless network. WPS is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance.

WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Each WPS connection works between two devices. Both devices must support WPS (check each device's documentation to make sure).

Depending on the devices you have, you can either press a button (recommended) on the device itself, or in its configuration utility or enter a PIN (a unique Personal Identification Number that allows one device to authenticate the other) in each of the two devices. When WPS is activated on a device, it has two minutes to find another device that also has WPS activated. Then, the two devices connect and set up a secure network by themselves.

1.6 Wall Mounting

You may need screw anchors if mounting on a concrete or brick wall.

Table 2 Wall Mounting Information

Distance between holes 5.7 cm
M4 Screws Two
Screw anchors (optional) Two

1 Select a position free of obstructions on a wall strong enough to hold the weight of the device.
2 Mark two holes on the wall at the appropriate distance apart for the screws.

Be careful to avoid damaging pipes or cables located inside the wall when drilling holes for the screws.

3 If using screw anchors, drill two holes for the screw anchors into the wall. Push the anchors into the full depth of the holes, then insert the screws into the anchors. Do not insert the screws all the way in - leave a small gap of about 0.5 cm.
4 If not using screw anchors, use a screwdriver to insert the screws into the wall. Do not insert the screws all the way in - leave a gap of about 0.5 cm.
5 Make sure the screws are fastened well enough to hold the weight of the WAP7205 with the connection cables.
6 Remove the cover of the wall mounting holes. Align the holes on the back of the WAP7205 with the screws on the wall. Hang the WAP7205 on the screws.

CHAPTER 5 Tutorials

5.1 Overview

This chapter provides tutorials for your WAP7205 as follows:

• Connecting to the WAP7205's Wi-Fi Network Using WPS
• Connecting to the WAP7205's Wi-Fi Network Using SSID (No WPS)
  • Using Multiple SSIDs on the WAP7205

5.2 Connecting to the WAP7205's Wi-Fi Network Using WPS

This section gives you an example of how to set up a wireless network using WPS. This example uses the WAP7205 as the AP and a WPS-enabled Android smartphone as the wireless client.

There are two WPS methods for creating a secure connection. This tutorial shows you how to do both.

• Push Button Configuration (PBC) - create a secure wireless network simply by pressing a button. See Section 5.2.1 on page 23. This is the easier method.
• PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network simply by entering a wireless client's PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the WAP7205's interface. See Section 5.2.2 on page 24. This is the more secure method, since one device can authenticate the other.

5.2.1 Push Button Configuration (PBC)

1 Make sure that your WAP7205 is turned on and that it is within range of your wireless client.
2 WPS is enabled by default on the WAP7205. If not, log into WAP7205's Web Configurator and turn it on in the Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G > WPS screen. You can either press the WPS button on the WAP7205's panel or press the Push Button button in the Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G > WPS Station screen.
3 Go to your phone settings and turn on Wi-Fi. Open the Wi-Fi networks list and tap WPS Push Button or the WPS icon ( ).

Note: It doesn't matter which button is pressed first. You must press the second button within two minutes of pressing the first one.

The WAP7205 sends the proper configuration settings to the wireless client. This may take up to two minutes. Then the wireless client is able to communicate with the WAP7205 securely.

The following figure shows you how to set up wireless network and security by pressing a button on both WAP7205 and wireless client (the Android smartphone in this example).

5.3 Connecting to the WAP7205's Wi-Fi Network Using SSID (No WPS)

In this example, we change the WAP7205's wireless settings, and then manually select the WAP7205's new SSID and enter the Wi-Fi key to connect a wireless client to the WAP7205.

5.3.1 Configuring Wireless Security on the WAP7205

This section shows you how to configure wireless security settings with the following parameters on your WAP7205.

Frequency Band 2.4 GHz
SSID SSID_Example
Channel Auto
Security WPA2-PSK	(Pre-Shared Key: ThisismyWPA-PSKpre-sharedkey)

Follow the steps below to configure the wireless settings on your WAP7205.

The instructions require that your hardware is connected (see the Quick Start Guide) and you are logged into the Web Configurator through your LAN connection (see Section 5.2 on page 41).

1 Open the Wireless LAN 2.4G > General screen in the WAP7205's Web Configurator.
2 Enter SSID_Example as the SSID and select Auto Channel Selection to have the WAP7205 scans for and select an available channel automatically.
3 Set security mode to WPA2-PSK and enter ThisismyWPA-PSKpre-sharedkey in the Pre-Shared Key field. Select WPA-PSK Compatible to allow wireless devices using WPA-PSK security mode to connect to the WAP7205. Click Apply.

4 Open the Status screen. Verify your wireless and wireless security settings under Device Information and check if the WLAN connection is up under Interface Status.

5.3.2 Configuring Your Notebook

Note: In this example, we use a Windows 7 laptop that has a built-in wireless adapter as the wireless client.

1 The WAP7205 supports IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11an and IEEE 802.11ac wireless clients. Make sure that your notebook or computer's wireless adapter supports one of these standards.
2 Click the Wi-Fi icon in your computer's system tray.

3 The Wireless Network Connection screen displays. Click the refresh button to update the list of the available wireless APs within range.

4 Select SSID_Example and click Connect.

5 The following screen displays if WPS is enabled on the WAP7205 but you didn't press the WPS button. Click Connect using as security key instead.

6 Type the security key in the following screen. Click OK.

7 Check the status of your wireless connection in the screen below.

8 If the wireless client keeps trying to connect to or acquiring an IP address from the WAP7205, make sure you entered the correct security key.

If the connection has limited or no connectivity, make sure the WAP7205 is connected to a router with the DHCP server enabled.

If your connection is successful, open your Internet browser and enter http://www.zyxel.com or the URL of any other web site in the address bar. If you are able to access the web site, your wireless connection is successfully configured.

5.4 Using Multiple SSIDs on the WAP7205

You can configure more than one SSID on a WAP7205. This allows you to configure multiple independent wireless networks on the WAP7205 as if there were multiple APs (virtual APs). Each virtual AP has its own SSID, wireless security type and MAC filtering settings. That is, each SSID on the WAP7205 represents a different access point/wireless network to wireless clients in the network.

Clients can associate only with the SSIDs for which they have the correct security settings. Clients using different SSIDs can access the Internet and the wired network behind the WAP7205 (such as a printer), but they cannot listen to each other's traffic.

For example, you may set up three wireless networks (A, B and C) in your office. A is for workers, B is for guests and C is specific to a VoIP device in the meeting room.

5.4.1 Configuring Security Settings of Multiple SSIDs

This example shows you how to configure the SSIDs with the following parameters on your WAP7205 (in access point mode).

SSID SECURITY TYPE KEY		INTRA-BSS TRAFFIC BLOCKING	MAC FILTERING
SSID_Worker WPA2-PSKWPA Compatible	DoNotStealMyWirelessNetwork No Disable
SSID_Guest WPA2-PSKWPA Compatible	keyexample123 No Disable
SSID_VoIP WPA2-PSKWPA Compatible	VoIPOnly12345678 Yes Allow		00:A0:C5:01:23:45

1 Go to Configuration > Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G or 5G > More AP. Configure the screen as follows. In this example, you select Intra-BSS Traffic blocking for SSID_VolP but disable Intra-BSS Traffic blocking for SSID_Worker and SSID_Guest to allow wireless clients in the same wireless network to communicate with each other. Click Apply.

2 Click the MAC Filter tab to configure MAC filtering for the SSID_VoIP wireless network. Select SSID_VoIP from the SSID Select drop-down list, enable MAC address filtering and select Allow in the Filter Action field. Enter the VoIP device's MAC address in the MAC Address field and click Apply to allow only the VoIP device to associate with the WAP7205 using this SSID.

The wireless network is the part in the blue circle. In this wireless network, devices A and B are called wireless clients. The wireless clients use the access point (AP) to interact with other devices (such as the printer) or with the Internet. Your WAP7205 is the AP.

7.2 What You Can Do

• Use the General screen (Section 7.4 on page 41) to turn the wireless connection on or off, enter the SSID, select the channel, and configure wireless security between the WAP7205 and the wireless clients.

• Use the More AP screen (Section 7.4 on page 41) to enable and configure multiple wireless networks on the WAP7205.

• Use the MAC Filter screen (Section 7.7 on page 49) to allow or deny wireless stations based on their MAC addresses from connecting to the WAP7205.

• Use the Advanced screen (Section 7.8 on page 50) to configure wireless advanced features, such as set the RTS/CTS Threshold and HT physical mode.
• Use the QoS screen (Section 7.9 on page 51) to enable WiFi MultiMedia Quality of Service (WMMQoS). This allows the WAP7205 to automatically set priority levels to services, such as e-mail, VoIP, chat, and so on.
• Use the WPS screen (Section 7.10 on page 52) to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually.
• Use the WPS Station screen (Section 7.11 on page 53) to add a wireless station using WPS.
• Use the Scheduling screen (Section 7.12 on page 53) to set the times your wireless LAN is turned on and off.

7.3 What You Should Know

Every wireless network must follow these basic guidelines.

• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use the same SSID.
  The SSID is the name of the wireless network. It stands for Service Set IDentity.
• If two wireless networks overlap, they should use different channels.
  Like radio stations or television channels, each wireless network uses a specific channel, or frequency, to send and receive information.
• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use security compatible with the AP.
  Security stops unauthorized devices from using the wireless network. It can also protect the information that is sent in the wireless network.

7.3.1 Wireless Security Overview

The following sections introduce different types of wireless security you can set up in the wireless network.

7.3.1.1 SSID

Normally, the AP acts like a beacon and regularly broadcasts the SSID in the area. You can hide the SSID instead, in which case the AP does not broadcast the SSID. In addition, you should change the default SSID to something that is difficult to guess.

This type of security is fairly weak, however, because there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the SSID. In addition, unauthorized devices can still see the information that is sent in the wireless network.

7.3.1.2 MAC Address Filter

Every wireless client has a unique identification number, called a MAC address. ^1 A MAC address is usually written using twelve hexadecimal characters ^2 ; for example, 00A0C5000002 or 00:A0:C5:00:00:02.

To get the MAC address for each wireless client, see the appropriate User's Guide or other documentation.

You can use the MAC address filter to tell the AP which wireless clients are allowed or not allowed to use the wireless network. If a wireless client is allowed to use the wireless network, it still has to have the correct settings (SSID, channel, and security). If a wireless client is not allowed to use the wireless network, it does not matter if it has the correct settings.

This type of security does not protect the information that is sent in the wireless network. Furthermore, there are ways for unauthorized devices to get the MAC address of an authorized wireless client. Then, they can use that MAC address to use the wireless network.

7.3.1.3 WPS

WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) is an industry standard specification, defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance. WPS allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security, without having to configure security settings manually. Depending on the devices in your network, you can either press a button (on the device itself) or enter a PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the devices. Then, they connect and set up a secure network by themselves.

7.4 General Wireless LAN Screen

Use this screen to enable or disable the WLAN, enter the SSID, select the channel and configure wireless security settings.

Note: If you are configuring the WAP7205 from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you change the WAP7205's SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the WAP7205's new settings.

CHAPTER 10 SNMP

10.1 Overview

This chapter explains how to configure the SNMP settings on the WAP7205.

Simple Network Management Protocol is a protocol used for exchanging management information between network devices. Your WAP7205 supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the WAP7205 through the network. The WAP7205 supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version two (SNMPv2c). The next figure illustrates an SNMP management operation.

Figure 33 SNMP Management Model

    D --> G["Managed Device"]
    B <--> H["SNMP"]
    C <--> H
    D <--> H

An SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager.

An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the WAP7205). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into a form compatible with SNMP. The manager is the console through which network administrators perform network management functions. It executes applications that control and monitor managed devices.

The managed devices contain object variables/managed objects that define each piece of information to be collected about a device. Examples of variables include such as number of packets received, node port status etc. A Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection of managed objects. SNMP allows a manager and agents to communicate for the purpose of accessing these objects.

SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol based on the manager/agent model. The manager issues a request and the agent returns responses using the following protocol operations:

- Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent.

• GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.
• Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.
• Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.

2 If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 12.4 on page 76.

I cannot see or access the Login screen in the Web Configurator.

1 Make sure you are using the correct address.

- The default web address (URL) of the WAP7205 is http://zyxelsetup (for Windows) or http://zyxelsetup.local (for Mac).

2 Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide.
3 Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScript and Java enabled.
4 Reset the device to its factory defaults, and try to access the WAP7205 with the default address.
5 If the problem continues, contact the network administrator or vendor, or try one of the advanced suggestions.

Advanced Suggestions

- If your computer is connected wirelessly, use a computer that is connected to a LAN/ETHERNET port.

I can see the Login screen, but I cannot log in to the WAP7205.

1 Make sure you have entered the password correctly. The default password is on the label behind the ZYXEL logo plate.
2 This can happen when you fail to log out properly from your last session. Try logging in again after 5 minutes.
3 Disconnect and re-connect the WAP7205.
4 If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 12.4 on page 76.

12.3 Internet Access

I cannot access the Internet.

1 Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick Start Guide.
2 Try to connect directly to the gateway. If you can access the Internet, check that the WAP7205 has connected to the gateway by checking the Status screen. See Section 3.1 on page 18.
