◆ Set Radio — Sets all entered parameters.
VIRTUAL ACCESS POINTS (VAPS)
The access point supports up to eight virtual access point (VAP) interfaces
numbered 0 to 7. Each VAP functions as a separate access point, and can
be configured with its own Service Set Identification (SSID) and security
settings. However, most radio signal parameters apply to all eight VAP
interfaces.
The VAPs function similar to a VLAN, with each VAP mapped to its own
default VLAN ID. Traffic to specific VAPs can be segregated based on user
groups or application traffic. All VAPs can support up to a total of 64
wireless clients, whereby the clients associate with each VAP the same way
as they would with separate physical access points.

The radio channel settings for the access point are limited by local
regulations, which determine the number of channels that are available.
See “Operating Channels” on page 248 for additional information on the
maximum number channels available.
