Radio1 Virtual Interface
The bottom section of the Wireless Configuration provides for the configuration of the Operating Mode of
the Wireless Interface, the TX power, Wireless Network information, and Wireless Encryption. The pX2 can
support multiple virtual interfaces. These interfaces provide different SSID’s for different users, and can
also be assigned to separate subnets (Network Interfaces) to prevent groups from interacting.
Choose the network Virtual Interface. If additional
Network Interfaces
have been defined in the Network > LAN section, the Interface name
will also appear here.

Access Point
- An Access Point may provide a wireless data
connection to many clients, such as stations, repeaters, or other
supported wireless devices such as laptops etc.
If more than 1 Virtual Interface (more than 1 SSID) has been defined,
the pX2 can
ONLY
operate as a Access Point, and will be locked into
this mode.

Station/Client
- A Station may sustain one wireless connection, i.e. to an Access Point.
Repeater
- A Repeater can be connected to an Access Point to extend the range and provide a
wireless data connection to many clients, such as stations.
Mesh Point
-
Units can be configured as a Mesh “Node”. When multiple units are configured as a
Mesh node, they automatically establish a network between each other. SSID for each
radio in a Mesh network must be the same.
