Chapter 7 Wireless Table 21 Network Setting > Wireless > Guest / More AP > Edit (continued) LABEL Wireless Network Name (SSID) Max clients Hide SSID Multicast Forwarding Guest WLAN Access Scenario DESCRIPTION The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the service set with which a wireless device is associated. Wireless devices associating to the access point (AP) must have the same SSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 English keyboard characters) for the wireless LAN. Specify the maximum number of clients that can connect to this network at the same time. Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool. Select this check box to allow the VMG to convert wireless multicast traffic into wireless unicast traffic. Select this to create Guest WLANs for home and external clients. Select the WLAN type in the Access Scenario field. If you select Home Guest, clients connecting to the same SSID can communicate with each other directly. Max. Upstream Bandwidth Max. Downstream Bandwidth SSID Subnet DHCP Start Address DHCP End Address SSID Subnet Mask LAN IP Address Security Level Security Mode If you select External Guest, clients are blocked from connecting to each other directly. Specify the maximum rate for upstream wireless traffic to the WAN from this WLAN in kilobits per second (Kbps). Specify the maximum rate for downstream wireless traffic to this WLAN from the WAN in kilobits per second (Kbps). Select Enable to create an independent subnet for the SSID, which is separated from the LAN subnet(s). Enter the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool for the SSID subnet. The VMG assigns IP addresses from this DHCP pool to wireless clients connecting to the SSID. Enter the last of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool for the SSID subnet. Enter the subnet mask of the VMG for the SSID subnet. Enter the IP address of the VMG for the SSID subnet. Select Basic (WEP) or More Secure (WPA(2)-PSK, WPA-WPA2-Personal) to add security on this wireless network. The wireless clients which want to associate to this network must have same wireless security settings as the VMG. After you select to use a security, additional options appears in this screen.
