SSID Choice – The name of the basic service set provided by a Virtual Access Point
(VAP) interface. Clients who want to connect to the network through the access
point must set their SSID to the same as that of the AP’s VAP interface. Note that
each radio supports 8 virtual access point (VAP) interfaces based on the SSIDs,
referred to as VAP 0 ~ VAP 7, and are named Wireless2 - Wireless2.7 by default.
Encryption Settings – The wireless security method used for this VAP, including

No Encryption – The VAP broadcasts a beacon signal including the configured
SSID. Wireless clients with an SSID setting of “any” can read the SSID from the
beacon and automatically set their SSID to allow immediate connection.
