• Name/ESSID: Type a short name for this WLAN. The maximum SSID length can contain
between 2 and 32 characters, including characters from ! (char 33) to ~ (char 126).
• In general, the WLAN name is the same as the advertised SSID (the name of the wireless
network as displayed in the client's wireless configuration program). However, you can
also separate the ESSID from the WLAN name by entering a name for the WLAN in the
first field, and a broadcast SSID in the second field. In this way, you can advertise the
same SSID in multiple locations (controlled by the same ZoneDirector) while still being
able to manage the different WLANs independently. Each WLAN "name" must be
unique within ZoneDirector, while the broadcast SSID can be the same for multiple
WLANs.
• Description: Enter a brief description of the qualifications/purpose for this WLAN, e.g.,
"Engineering" or "Voice."
