Defining Primary WLANs allows an administrator to dedicate BSSIDs (4 BSSIDs are
available for mapping) to WLANs. From that initial BSSID assignment, Primary WLANs can
be defined from within the WLANs assigned to BSSID groups 1 through 4. Each BSSID
beacons only on the primary WLAN.
The user should assign each WLAN to its own BSSID. In cases where more than four
WLANs are required, WLANs should be grouped according to their security policies so all of
the WLANs on a BSSID have the same security policy. It is generally a bad idea to have
WLANs with different security policies on the same BSSID, as this will result in warning or
error messages.
NOTE
If using a single-radio access point, there are 4 BSSIDs available. If using a dual-radio access point,
4 BSSIDs for the 802.11b/g/n radio and 4 BSSIDs for the 802.11a/n radio are available.
WLAN Lists the WLAN names available to the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio that can be
assigned to a BSSID.
BSSID Assign a BSSID value of 1 through 4 to a WLAN in order to map the WLAN to a specific
BSSID.
