4.8 Security Settings in Windows Vista

When you use the AG-220 in Windows Vista, the procedure for setting up WPA, WPA2 and
802.1x security settings is different from that of other operating systems (other security types
are not affected).
The procedures for setting up WPA, WPA2 or 802.1x in Vista are the same. However, the
procedure differs depending on whether you use PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication
Protocol) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption. Consult your network administrator
if you are unsure which type of encryption to use.

See

Section 4.8.1 on page 70

to use PEAP, or see

Section 4.8.2 on page 70

to use TLS.

OTIST (One-

Touch Intelligent

Security

Technology)

Select this check box to enable OTIST.

Setup Key

Enter the same setup key (up to eight printable characters) as the ZyXEL AP or

wireless router to which you want to associate. The default OTIST setup key is

"01234567".

Note: If you change the OTIST setup key on the ZyXEL AP or

wireless router, you must also make the same change here.

Start

Click Start to encrypt the wireless security data using the setup key and have the

ZyXEL AP or wireless router set your AG-220 to use the same wireless settings as

the ZyXEL AP or wireless router. You must also activate and start OTIST on the

ZyXEL AP or wireless router all within three minutes.

WPS (Wi-Fi

Protected Setup)

Select this to enable Wi-fi Protected Setup on the AG-220.

PBC

Select this to use the PBC (Push-Button Configuration) WPS mode. When you use

the PBC mode you do not use a PIN.

PIN

Select this to use the PIN (Personal Identification Number) WPS mode. Use this

option when you want to enter the AG-220’s PIN in another WPS-enabled device.

The PIN will be displayed in the field on the right. Click PIN again to generate a

new PIN.

Manual Input

Select this check box to manually enter the PIN into the field on the right. This

could be a PIN from another WPS-enabled device or a PIN you will type into the

other WPS-enabled device.

Start

Click Start once you have selected the PBC or PIN settings. A screen will appear

that states the WPS is in progress. You must now start WPS on the other WPS-

enabled device within two minutes or the connection will time out. If the two WPS

devices connect you will receive a successful connection message.

Click Save to save the changes back to the AG-220 and return to the Link Info

screen.
