no vap broadcast ssid (access point)
Description
With this command, you disable the "Broadcast SSID" function. The SSID is no longer sent
in the frame of the access point. This means that the SSID is not visible for other
SCALANCE W700 devices. Only stations that know the SSID of the access point and that
are configured with it can connect to the access point. The "Any SSID" option must be
disabled on these clients.
Note
This command is available only in access point mode.
Requirement
You are in the Interface Configuration mode of the VAP interface.
The command prompt is as follows:
cli (config-if-vapX-0-Y)#
Syntax
Call the command without parameter assignment:
no vap broadcast ssid
Result
The function is disabled.
Further notes
You display the setting with the show wlan vap <vap X 0/Y>command.
You enable the function with the
vap broadcast ssid command (default setting).
