Broadcast SSID
Select the
Broadcast SSID
setting by clicking the "Allow" or "Prohibit" radio but-
ton.
By default, the access point broadcasts (allows) the
Service Set Identifier
(SSID) in its beacon frames.
You can suppress (prohibit) this broadcast to discourage stations from auto-
matically discovering your access point. When the access point’s broadcast
SSID is suppressed, the network name will not be displayed in the List of Avail-
able Networks on a client device. Instead, the client must have the exact net-
work name configured in the supplicant before it will be able to connect.
Note:
The Broadcast SSID you set here is specifically for this Virtual Network
(One or Two). Other networks continue to use the security modes already
configured: your original Internal network (configured on Advanced menu’s
Ethernet [Wired] page) uses the Broadcast SSID set on Advanced menu’s
Security page.
Security Mode
Select the
Security Mode
for this VLAN. Select one of the following:
•
None
• Static WEP
• IEEE 802.1x
• WPA/WPA2 Personal (PSK)
• WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (RADIUS)
Note:
The Security mode you set here is specifically for this Virtual Network
(One or Two). Other networks continue to use the security modes already
configured:
• Your original Internal network uses the Security mode set on the Advanced
menu’s Security page.
• If a Guest VLAN is configured, it always uses
None
.
For a comparison of the available security modes, see “How Do I Know Which
Security Mode to Use?” on page 101.
