DESCRIPTION
This is the name that identifying this profile.
When a wireless client scans for an AP to associate with, this is the name that is
broadcast and seen in the wireless client utility.
Select a security profile to use with this SSID profile. See
more information. If you do not want this profile to use wireless security, select
Disabled.
Select a RADIUS profile from the drop-down list box, if you have a RADIUS server
configured. If you do not need to use RADIUS authentication, ignore this field. See
Section 6.7 on page 87
for more information.
Select a MAC filter profile from the drop-down list box. If you do not want to use MAC
filtering on this profile, select Disabled.
Select the Quality of Service priority for this BSS's traffic.
•
If you select WMM from the QoS list, the priority of a data packet depends on the
packet's IEEE 802.1q or DSCP header. If a packet has no WMM value assigned to
it, it is assigned the default priority.
•
If you select WMM_VOICE, WMM_VIDEO, WMM_BESTEFFORT or
WMM_BACKGROUND, the NWA1121-NI applies that QoS setting to all of that
SSID's traffic.
•
If you select None, the NWA1121-NI applies no priority to traffic on this SSID.
Note: When you configure an SSID profile's QoS settings, the NWA1121-NI applies the
same QoS setting to all of the profile's traffic.
