Table 52 Groups > SSIDs Fields and Descriptions (Continued) Field Description Encryption Mode First or Second Radio Enabled First or Second Radio Primary Native VLAN Displays the encryption on the VLAN. Enables the VLAN, SSID and Encryption Mode on the radio control. Specifies which VLAN to be used as the primary VLAN. A primary VLAN is required. NOTE: If you create an open network (see the Create Closed Network setting below) in which the APs broadcast an SSID, the primary SSID is broadcast. Sets this VLAN to be the native VLAN. Native VLANs are untagged and typically used for management traffic only. AWMS requires a Native VLAN to be set. For AP types do not require a native VLAN, create a dummy VLAN, disable it on both radio controls, and ensure that it has the highest VLAN ID. 3.
