Description
You can enable or disable a configured network.
• To enable the specified network, click the Enabled option beside
the appropriate VAP.
• To disable the specified network, clear the Enabled option beside
the appropriate VAP.
If you disable the specified network, you will lose the VLAN ID you
entered.
When a wireless client connects to the AP by using this VAP, the AP tags
all traffic from the wireless client with the VLAN ID you enter in this
field unless you enter the untagged VLAN ID or use a RADIUS server to
assign a wireless client to a VLAN. The range for the VLAN ID is 1-
4094.
If you use RADIUS-based authentication for clients, you can optionally
add the following attributes to configure a VLAN for the client:
• "Tunnel-Type"
• "Tunnel-Medium-Type"
• "Tunnel-Private-Group-ID"
The RADIUS-assigned VLAN ID overrides the VLAN ID you configure
on the VAP page.
Note: Any RADIUS-assigned VLAN cannot be the same as the
management VLAN.
You configure the untagged and management VLAN IDs on the Ethernet
Settings page. For more information, see
Interface" on page 31.
Enter a name for the wireless network. The SSID is an alphanumeric
string of up to 32 characters. You can use the same SSID for multiple
VAPs, or you can choose a unique SSID for each VAP.
Note: If you are connected as a wireless client to the same AP that you
are administering, resetting the SSID will cause you to lose connectivity
to the AP. You will need to reconnect to the new SSID after you save this
new setting.
To enable the SSID broadcast, click the Broadcast SSID option.
By default, the access point broadcasts (allows) the Service Set Identifier
(SSID) in its beacon frames.
For information about turing off the SSID broadcast, see
SSID Broadcast" on page 53.
