Tabulated below are ‘VAP-AP Mode’ parameters and the method to configure the configurable parameters:
Parameter Description
Status Specifies the status of the VAP.
By default, the first VAP is always enabled and other VAPs are disabled. To enable a VAP,
select Enable from the drop down menu.
Type Specifies the VAP Type.
By default, the VAP Type is AP. Configurable VAP types are AP, WDS-END A, WDS-END B,
WDS-Legacy. (See Wireless Distribution System (WDS) for details)
SSID Specifies the unique network name used to identify a wireless network. To change the
wireless network name, enter a new name in the SSID box with a maximum of 31
characters.
BSSID Specifies a read-only parameter which displays the VAP’s MAC address.
Broadcast SSID The continuous announcement of the SSID in the beacons by VAP is called Broadcast SSID.
The SSID is also broadcasted in probe response frames. For a VAP to broadcast SSID in
beacons, select Enable from the Broadcast SSID box. When disabled, clients cannot detect
the SSID and therefore cannot connect to the AP device.
