Description
Select the Broadcast SSID setting by selecting the Broadcast SSID checkbox.
By default, the access point broadcasts (allows) the Service Set Identifier (SSID) in its beacon frames.
You can suppress (prohibit) this broadcast to discourage stations from automatically discovering your
access point. When the AP's broadcast SSID is suppressed, the network name will not be displayed in the
List of Available Networks on a client station. Instead, the client must have the exact network name config-
ured in the supplicant before it will be able to connect.
Note: The Broadcast SSID you set here is specifically for this Virtual Network (One or Two).
Other networks continue to use the security modes already configured:
• Your original Internal network (configured on the Ethernet Settings page) uses the Broadcast
SSID set on Security.
• If a Guest network is configured, the Broadcast SSID is always allowed.
Select the Security Mode for this VLAN. Select one of the following:
• None (Plain-text)
• Static WEP
• WPA Personal
Note: The Security mode you set here is specifically for this Virtual Network. Other networks
continue to use the security modes already configured:
• Your original Internal network (configured on the Ethernet Settings page) uses the Security
mode set on Security.
• If a Guest network is configured, always set the security mode to "None".
