You can assign only one VLAN to the SSID. If you need to have multiple VLANs configured

for a WLAN, you must configure the SSID using the WLAN Advanced Configuration pages.

•

The authentication server must be a RADIUS server or the WFS709TP’s internal database.

If you specify a RADIUS server, you can configure the server’s IP address, authentication and

accounting ports, and shared key.

If you specify the WFS709TP’s internal database, you will need to navigate to the

Configuration > Advanced > Security > Authentication Servers > Internal DB to add entries to

the database.

To configure an SSID in the WLAN Basic Configuration page, navigate to the Configuration >

Basic > WLAN page (
