DESCRIPTION
Press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes to turn on the wireless LAN. The wireless LAN is off
by default. Configure wireless LAN security features such as Mac filters and 802.1X
before you turn on the wireless LAN.
(Extended Service Set IDentification) The ESSID identifies the AP to which the wireless
stations associate. Wireless stations associating to the Access Point must have the
same ESSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 characters) for the wireless LAN.
Press [SPACE BAR] to select Yes to hide the ESSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a
station cannot obtain the ESSID through passive scanning.
This allows you to set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular
region. Use the [SPACE BAR] to select a channel.
