Configuring the Wireless Network

applicable). 802.1x is supported.

networks (VAPs - Virtual Access Points).

password required).

does not use a hotspot by default.

If multiple wireless networks (VAPs) are defined, they appear in a table below 2.4 GHz Radio
band and 5GHz Radio band.
1530 / 1550 appliances only: The wireless client search options depend on the frequency that
the appliance is set to. The Quantum Spark Appliance can be configured to only one frequency
at a time and is set to 2.4 GHz by default. If you change the radio settings to 802.11 ac or
802.11 ac/n, the frequency automatically changes to 5 GHz. The Home > System page shows
the wireless radio status.
1570 / 1590 appliances only: There are two radio transmitters: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Each
network is configured separately under a specified transmitter.
You can add a new guest or standard wireless network and edit, delete, or disable existing
ones. You can also clone an existing VAP.
