Description
Setting
The SSID is the WiFi network name of the VAP. Enter a name for the SSID with a maximum
of 32 characters. You can use a combination of alphanumeric and special characters, except
for quotation marks (") and a backslash (\).
For a WiFi device to be able to connect to the VAP, the SSID on the WiFi device must match
the SSID of the VAP.
Wireless
Network Name
(SSID)
By default, the VAP broadcasts its SSID so that WiFi clients can detect the SSID in their
scanned network lists. To turn off the SSID broadcast, select the No radio button.
Turning off the SSID broadcast provides additional WiFi security, but users must know the
SSID to be able to join the VAP.
Broadcast SSID
You can enter the VLAN ID that must be associated with the VAP. By default, the VLAN ID is
1.
This VLAN ID is not the same as the 802.1Q VLAN ID that is used for the wired network (see
Set the 802.1Q VLAN and management VLAN on page 139).
