VirtualAP
Virtual AP functionality is available only in Access Point (auto WDS) wireless mode.
Use the Configuration | Virtual AP page to configure to create up to 3 additional Virtual AP
interfaces. The Virtual AP defines a logical wireless network, and the APC can be configured to
provide additional 3 wireless networks on each device radio. All the VAPs may be active at the same
time meaning that client devices can associate to the APC using any of the VAP SSID.
The Virtual AP table displays a summary of all virtual radio interfaces running on the APC:

Broadcast SSID – when this option is selected the particular SSID is visible during network scans on
a wireless station. When unselected, the VAP SSID is not visible and not broadcasted to wireless
stations.
Quality of service (WMM) – enable to support quality of service for prioritizing traffic.
User isolation – enable the user Layer 2 isolation. The Layer 2 isolation blocks the wireless clients
from communicating with each other.
Each VAP security is configured by default as an “open system”, which broadcasts a beacon signal
including the configured SSID. For more secure network choose one of the security mechanisms for
each VAP interface.
Security – choose the wireless security and encryption method from the drop-down list (for detailed
security configuration, refer to the respective section Access Point (auto WDS) Security Settings).
Open – no encryption.
