• SSID Name—The SSID is the unique name shared between all devices in a
wireless network. It is case-sensitive, must not exceed 32 alphanumeric
characters, and may be any keyboard character. Make sure this setting is the
same for all devices in your wireless network. The default SSID name is
ciscosb.
• SSID Broadcast—Allows the SSID to be broadcast on your network. You
may want to enable this function while configuring your network, but make
sure that you disable it when you are finished. With this enabled, someone
could easily obtain the SSID information with site survey software or
Windows XP and gain unauthorized access to your network. Click Enabled
to broadcast the SSID to all wireless devices in range. Click Disabled to
increase network security and prevent the SSID from being seen on
networked personal computers. The default is Enabled in order to help
users configure their network before use.
Click Save.
