configure security-profile ssid-in-beacon
configure security-profile <name> ssid-in-beacon {on | off}
Description
Establishes whether the service set identifier (SSID) is advertised in the beacon frame.
Syntax Description
Default
On
Usage Guidelines
The beacon turns on whether or not the SSID is published in the beacon. If you set this command to off,
the beacon does not contain the SSID, and the client must know the SSID before it can associate.
Sniffing on the beacon shows an empty SSID.
Configuration changes take effect immediately and are propagated to all ports sharing the named
profile. If the command fails, none of the changes is propagated to any of the ports.
Example
The following command configures the security profile called secure1 not to publish the SSID in the
beacon:
configure security-profile secure1 ssid-in-beacon off
