Figure 43 Groups > SSIDs Page Illustration
1. Go to Groups > List and select the group name for which to define SSIDs/VLANs.
2. Select the Groups > SSIDs configuration page. Table 54 describes the information that appears for SSIDs
and VLANs that are currently configured for the device group.
3. Select Add to create a new SSID or VLAN, or select the pencil icon next to an existing SSID/VLAN to edit
that existing SSID or VLAN. The Add SSID/VLAN configuration page appears as illustrated in Figure 44 and
explained in Table 55.
NOTE: AMP reports users by radio and by SSID. Graphs on the AP and controller monitoring pages display bandwidth in and out
based on SSID. AMP reports can also be run and filtered by SSID. An option on the AMP Setup > General page can age out SSIDs
and their associated graphical data; by default, this is set to 365 days.
Table 54 Groups > SSIDs Fields and Descriptions
Field Description
SSID Displays the SSID associated with the VLAN.
VLAN ID Identifies the number of the primary VLAN SSID on which encrypted or unencrypted packets can
pass between the AP and the switch.
Name Displays the name of the VLAN.
Encryption Mode Displays the encryption on the VLAN.
First or Second Radio
Enabled
Enables the VLAN, SSID and Encryption Mode on the radio control.
First or Second Radio
Primary
Specifies which VLAN to be used as the primary VLAN. A primary VLAN is required.
NOTE: If you create an open network (see the Create Closed Network setting below) in which the
APs broadcast an SSID, the primary SSID is broadcast.
Native VLAN Sets this VLAN to be the native VLAN. Native VLANs are untagged and typically used for
management traffic only. AMP requires a Native VLAN to be set. For AP types do not require a
native VLAN, create a dummy VLAN, disable it on both radio controls, and ensure that it has the
highest VLAN ID.
