When
disabled
, the SSID will not be visible as an available
Wi-Fi network to clients – clients must manually enter the
SSID in order to connect.
A hidden (disabled) SSID is typically more secure than a visible
(enabled) SSID.
Wireless Client
Isolation
Enable or disable wireless client isolation.
Wireless client isolation prevents clients connected to the
access point from communicating with each other and improves
security. Typically, this function is useful for corporate
environments or public hot spots and can prevent brute force
attacks on clients’ usernames and passwords.
Load Balancing
Load balancing limits the number of wireless clients connected
to an SSID. Set a load balancing value (maximum 50 per radio).
Authentication
Method
Select an authentication method from the drop down menu and
refer to the information below appropriate for your method.
Additional
Authentication
Select an additional authentication method from the drop down
menu.
No Authentication
Authentication is disabled and no password/key is required to connect to the access point.
Disabling wireless authentication is NOT recommended. When disabled, anybody within
range can connect to your device’s SSID.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a basic encryption type. For a higher level of security consider using WPA
encryption.
