An SSID (service set identifier) is an alphanumeric string that identifies a set of authentication and encryption
services that wireless clients and access points use when communicating with each other. In this example, you
define the following three SSID profiles, which are also shown in
SSID Name
Security Protocol
voip
Key method: WPA2-PSK
Encryption method: TKIP
Preshared key (ASCII): CmFwbo1121
Authentication method: Open
corp
Key method: WPA2-EAP (802.1X)
Encryption method: CCMP (AES)
Authentication method: EAP (802.1X)
guest
Key method: Auto-(WPA or WPA2)-PSK
Encryption method: Auto-TKIP or CCMP (AES)
Preshared key (ASCII): guest123
Authentication method: Open
Note: You can define up to four SSIDs for a single radio in access mode. If hive members use one radio for wireless
backhaul communications, then they must use the other radio in access mode. In this case, a HiveAP can
have a maximum of four SSIDs. If hive members send backhaul traffic completely over wired links, then
both radios can be in access mode and a HiveAP can have a maximum of eight SSIDs.
