VAP Data
Enter the desired settings for each of the following:
VAP Name
Enter a suitable name for this VAP.
SSID
Enter the desired SSID. Each VAP must have a unique SSID.
Broadcast SSID
If Disabled, no SSID is broadcast.
If enabled, the SSID will then be broadcast to all Wireless
Stations. Stations which have no SSID (or a "null" value) can
then adopt the correct SSID for connections to this Access
Point.
Isolation within
VAP
If enabled, then each Wireless station using the Access Point
is invisible to other Wireless stations. In most business sta-
tions, this setting should be Disabled.
Security Settings
Select the desired option, and then enter the settings for the selected method.
The available options are:
 None - No security is used. Anyone using the correct SSID can connect to your
network.
 WEP - The 802.11b standard. Data is encrypted before transmission, but the
encryption system is not very strong.
 WPA-PSK - Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more
secure than WEP, and should be used if possible. The PSK (Pre-shared Key)
must be entered on each Wireless station. The 256Bit encryption key is derived
from the PSK, and changes frequently.
