BW1250 supports
Multiple BSSID (MBSSID)
function. You can configure up to 16 BSSIDs per radio
on BW1250 and assign different configuration settings to each BSSID. For wireless users, they can
think BW1250 as single AP with multi service supporting, including different security policy, different
VLAN ID, different authentication etc. All the BSSIDs are active at the same time that means client
devices can associate to the access point for specific service. Use the
Wireless | Advance
menu to
configure properties related to Multiple BSSID, including configure SSID, Hidden SSID, VLAN, and
Security for each SSID.
Each BSSID can have its own SSID. In this case, Multiple BSSID is the same with
Multiple ESSID. Wireless users can think BW1250 as multiple virtual APs, each
supporting different service, and connects one SSID for the special services.
Also, BW1250 supports
Bridge
function, it can support up to 8
Bridge links
per radio. Different
bridge link can use different WEP key index.
