Pre-Configured Ssid Profiles; Figure 5 Multiple Bsss - ZyXEL Communications NWA-3160 Series User Manual

For example, you might want to set up a wireless network in your office where Internet
telephony (Voice over IP, or VoIP) users have priority. You also want a regular wireless
network for standard users, as well as a 'guest' wireless network for visitors. In the following
figure, VoIP_SSID users have Quality of Service (QoS) priority, SSID03 is the wireless
network for standard users, and Guest_SSID is the wireless network for guest users. In this
example, the guest user is forbidden access to the wired LAN behind the AP and can access
only the Internet.

requiring low latency. The QoS level of this profile is not user-configurable. See

2 Guest_SSID. This profile is intended for use by visitors and others who require access
to certain resources on the network (an Internet gateway or a network printer, for
example) but must not have access to the rest of the network. Layer 2 isolation is enabled
