The SSID is case sensitive and can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
The SSID does not need to be unique. The same SSID can exist with different
attributes (e.g. VLAN) on different access points. To configure this, use a different
name with the same SSID and then override the access points with the desired named
SSID.
• VLAN -- Optional. Enter a VLAN identifier.
Entering a VLAN ID enables VLAN tagging support on the BSAP. If enabled, the BSAP
will tag traffic passing from wireless clients to the BSC with the VLAN ID (0 means no
VLAN, Range 2 to 4095).
Broadcast SSID Optional. The Enable checkbox is marked by default to broadcast the BSAP's SSID.
When enabled, the BSAP will include its SSID in beacon messages, and it will respond to
probe requests from clients that do not include the correct SSID. You can disable this
option to hide the BSAP's SSID to prevent access to clients without a pre-configured SSID.
(Default: Enabled, i.e. the BSAP's SSID is broadcast in the clear)
Edge-to-Edge If Edge-to-Edge is enabled, wireless traffic will not be tunneled through the BSC. This can
compromise security and should be used with caution. Client to client traffic will not be
blocked
Standby SSID Mark to indicate that this SSID should be enabled when AP's connectivity to the BSC is
lost. SSIDs that require a dependency on the controller (i.e. tunneled SSIDs or 802.1x
based SSIDs cannot be used as a Standby SSID).
