6.6 Wireless Security Screen
Use this screen to choose the security mode for your NWA.
QoS
Select the Quality of Service priority for this BSS’s traffic.
•
If you select
WMM
from the QoS list, the priority of a data packet depends on the
packet’s IEEE 802.1q or DSCP header. If a packet has no WMM value assigned to
it, it is assigned the default priority.
•
If you select
WMM_VOICE
,
WMM_VIDEO
,
WMM_BESTEFFORT
or
WMM_BACKGROUND
, the NWA applies that QoS setting to all of that SSID’s
traffic.
•
If you select
None
, the NWA applies no priority to traffic on this SSID.
Note: When you configure an SSID profile’s QoS settings, the NWA applies the same
QoS setting to all of the profile’s traffic.
BSSID VLAN ID
Enter a VLAN ID for the SSID profile.
Packets coming from the WLAN using this SSID profile are tagged with the VLAN ID
number by the NWA.
Number of Wireless
Stations Allowed to
Associate
Use this field to set a maximum number of wireless stations that may connect to the
device.
Hidden SSID
If you do not select the checkbox, the NWA broadcasts this SSID (a wireless client
scanning for an AP will find this SSID). Alternatively, if you select the checkbox, the
NWA hides this SSID (a wireless client scanning for an AP will not find this SSID).
Intra-BSS Traffic
Blocking
Select this to prevent wireless clients in this profile’s BSS from communicating with
one another.
Enable Layer-2
Isolation
Select this to enable layer-2 isolation for this profile. Wireless clients that connect to
the WLAN using this SSID can access only certain pre-defined devices. See
.
Intra-BSS traffic blocking is enabled automatically when you enable layer-2 isolation.
