DESCRIPTION

 

 

ESSID

(Extended Service Set IDentity) The ESSID identifies the Service Set with which a

 

wireless station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP)

 

must have the same ESSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII

 

characters) for the wireless LAN.

 

 

 

 

 

If you are configuring the ZyAIR from a computer connected to

 

 

 

the wireless LAN and you change the ZyAIR’s ESSID or WEP

 

 

 

settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you

 

 

 

press Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless

 

 

 

settings of your computer to match the ZyAIR’s new settings.
