Radio Interface
Virtual AP:
•VAP (1‐7) enables or disables the selected virtual access point (VAP).
•Description that you provide for this VAP.
•Network Name (SSID) the name that you specify for the basic service set provided by this VAP. All clients that want to connect to the wired LAN through this VAP must set their SSIDs to this SSID.
•Native VLAN ID is the VLAN ID for this VAP. The access point assigns this VLAN ID to all client traffic using this VAP unless you assign unique VLAN IDs to clients through the RADIUS server using RFC 3580 (Section 3.31) tunnel attributes. For more information on tunnel attributes, see the description under radio interface.
•Secure Access specifies whether clients can access the default radio interface network by discovering and automatically configuring the SSID, or whether clients must be already configured with the SSID. Default: Disable
–Enabled specifies that this VAP denies access to wireless clients that do not have its network name (SSID) already configured. This VAP does not broadcast its network name, so that clients with operating systems like Windows XP do not see the name show up in wireless LAN configuration dialogs.
–Disabled specifies that this VAP broadcasts its network name, and clients can discover and use the SSID to access this default radio interface’s wireless network. Default: Disable
•IBSS Relay: In conjunction with IBSS Relay Control settings (see Filter Control on page 4‐17), controls whether clients associated with this VAP can establish wireless communications with each other through the AP. Default: Disable
If you enable IBSS Relay, clients can establish wireless communications with other clients. If you set the IBSS Relay Control to All VAP, then clients associated with all IBSS enabled radio interfaces or VAPs can establish wireless communications with each other. If you set the IBSS Relay Control to Per VAP, only the clients associated with the same (IBSS enabled) radio interface or VAP can communicate with each other.
•Maximum Associations (0‐255) specifies the number of clients allowed to associate with this VAP.
