Multiple SSID Setup > Wireless Settings The multiple SSID feature allows you to broadcast up to two additional SSIDs (or wireless network names). To wireless devices searching for available wireless networks to connect to, the SSIDs (or wireless network names) will appear as separate and different wireless networks. Since they appear as separate wireless networks, they are also referred to as virtual APs (Access Points). Each virtual AP can be configured each with a different SSID (or wireless network name), security type and additional settings for wireless devices to connect. You can use the multiple SSID feature to setup guest wireless accounts with a different security type to keep your primary wireless network security information private. In addition, the SSIDs can be mapped to a specified VLAN ID. See the VLAN section for instructions on assigning VLAN IDs to the SSIDs. 1.
