You can configure up to four SSIDs to enable multiple BSSs (Basic Service Sets) on the NBG6815.
This allows you to use one access point to provide several BSSs simultaneously. You can then
assign varying security types to different SSIDs. Wireless clients can use different SSIDs to
associate with the same access point.
