Chapter 8 Configuring Multiple SSIDs
When an SSID has been created in global configuration mode, the
ssid
configuration interface command attaches the SSID to the interface but does not
enter ssid configuration mode. However, if the SSID has not been created in
global configuration mode, the
ssid
command puts CLI into SSID
configuration mode for the new SSID.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create an SSID
globally. After you create an SSID, you can assign it to specific radio interfaces.
1.
Enter global configuration mode.
configure terminal
2.
Create an SSID and enter SSID configuration mode for the new SSID.
The SSID can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. SSIDs are case
sensitive.
•
The first character cannot contain the!, #, or; character.
•
+, ], /, ", TAB, and trailing spaces are invalid characters for SSIDs.

VLAN. You can assign only one SSID to a VLAN.
