Supports multiple BSSIDs. When one wireless access point is connected to a wired network and a set of wireless stations, it is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). The Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID) is a unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that differentiates one WLAN from another when a mobile device tries to connect to the network. • DHCP Client Support. DHCP provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The WAG102 can act as a client and obtain information from your DHPC server; it can also act as a DHCP server and provide network information for wireless clients. • SNMP Support. Support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) management. • 802.1Q VLAN (Virtual Wireless LAN) Support. A network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same network even though they actually may be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than hardware, which makes them extremely flexible. VLANs are very useful for user/host management, bandwidth allocation and resource optimization. 1-2 Introduction v2.0, September 2006
