Description

SSID

Specify a Server Set Identifier (SSID) with up to 32
alphanumeric characters. SSID is the name of a
wireless LAN. All wireless devices on a WLAN must
have the same SSID to communicate with each
other.

Hide SSID

Check the checkbox not to broadcast the SSID. If
Hide SSID is enabled, AP clients cannot
automatically detect an access point so that AP
clients must have the SSID of the access point to
connect to.

Ignore Broadcast

Check the checkbox not to allow access points to
respond to probes from AP clients.

VLAN

Specify a VLAN ID. The access point adds a VLAN
tag with the specified VLAN ID to frames from the
clients connected using the SSID.
