SSID Selection

Select which SSID to configure security settings for.

Broadcast SSID

Enable or disable SSID broadcast. When enabled, the SSID will

be visible to clients as an available Wi-Fi network. 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).

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 and refer to the information below (IV-3-1-3-6.)

appropriate for your method.

4-3-1-3-1. 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.
