Configuring Security On The Wireless Access Point - D-Link DWL-8600AP Administrator's Manual

D-Link UAP

ONFIGURING
You configure secure wireless client access by configuring security for each virtual access point (VAP) that you enable. You
can configure up to 16 VAPs per radio that simulate multiple APs in one physical access point. By default, only one VAP is
enabled. For each VAP, you can configure a unique security mode to control wireless client access.
Each radio has 16 VAPs, with VAP IDs from 0-15. By default, only VAP 0 on each radio is enabled. VAP0 has the following
default settings:
• VLAN ID: 1
• Broadcast SSID: Enabled
• SSID: dlink1
• Security: None
• MAC Authentication Type: None
• Redirect Mode: None
All other VAPs are disabled by default. The default SSID for VAPs 1–15 is dlinkx where x is the VAP ID.
To prevent unauthorized access to the UAP, we recommend that you select and configure a security option other than None
for the default VAP and for each VAP that you enable.
For information about how to configure the security settings on each VAP, see
