DESCRIPTION
Active
Select this to activate the SSID profile.
Name (SSID)
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless client is associated.
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable characters found on a typical English language
keyboard) for the wireless LAN.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot obtain
the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Intra-BSS Traffic
A Basic Service Set (BSS) exists when all communications between wireless clients or between a
wireless client and a wired network client go through one access point (AP).
Intra-BSS traffic is traffic between wireless clients in the BSS. When Intra-BSS is enabled, wireless
clients can access the wired network and communicate with each other. When Intra-BSS is
disabled, wireless clients can still access the wired network but cannot communicate with each
other.
WMM QoS
Check this to have the EMG2881-T20A automatically give a service a priority level according to
the ToS value in the IP header of packets it sends.
WMM QoS (Wifi MultiMedia Quality of Service) gives high priority to voice and video, which
makes them run more smoothly.
Security Mode
Select WPA2-PSK to add security on this wireless network. The wireless clients which want to
associate to this network must have same wireless security settings as this device. After you
select to use a security, additional options appears in this screen. See
detailed information on different security modes. Or you can select No Security to allow any
client to associate this network without authentication.
Note:
WPA-PSK
This field appears when you choose WPA2-PSK as the Security Mode.
Compatible
Check this field to allow wireless devices using WPA-PSK security mode to connect to your
EMG2881-T20A.
PMF
Protected Management Frames (PMF) is a protection mechanism of action management
frames.
Check this field to allow wireless devices using the PMF protection mechanism to connect to
your EMG2881-T20A.
Pre-Shared Key
WPA2-PSK uses a simple common password for authentication.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive keyboard characters.
Group Key
The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP sends a new group key out to all clients.
Update Timer
The default is 3600 seconds (60 minutes).
