SSID Options
Allow Default SSID
If this option is
enabled
, a wireless device will be
allowed to connect even without requesting a
specific SSID (i.e., “default” or “any” SSID) to the
Extricom WLAN. If this option is
disabled
, then a
wireless device needs to connect to a specific SSID
in the Extricom WLAN.
Display SSID in
Beacon
This option provides an additional (though limited)
level of security. The AP sends out a beacon with
information about the network. If this option is
enabled, the SSID appears in the beacon. If disabled,
the SSID does not appear in the beacon.
Allow Store &
Forward
If this option is
enabled
, two wireless devices
connected to the Extricom WLAN with the same
SSID can communicate and transfer data to each
other directly. Traffic between wireless devices will
not be forwarded to the LAN switch.
If this option is
disabled
, all traffic goes through the
LAN switch.. This could be used by IT managers to
apply security settings or various policies in the
LAN network.
Disabling
Allow Store & Forward
disables
the
Allow Inter-Ess Forward
option.
