Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs)
Configuration Options: Normal Versus Advanced Mode
Figure 3-15. Manually Assigning WLANs to an RP Radio
Figure 3-14 shows the Network Setup > Radio screen in which you would
check this configuration.
If you had assigned a fifth WLAN to the radio, then two SSIDs would be
assigned to BSSID 1, and beacons would advertise only one of these SSIDs.
If you want the beacons to include the WLAN with the higher index number,
then you should select the BSSID for the WLAN in the Network Setup > Radio
> WLAN Assignment screen. Then choose the higher WLAN in the Primary
WLAN drop-down menu, as shown in Figure 3-13.
Using Normal and Advanced Mode Together
Rather than using advanced mode alone, it is often a good idea to first enable
WLANs in normal mode, producing a template WLAN assignment that you can
then alter with advanced mode configuration.
Follow these steps:
1. Select Network Setup > WLAN Setup.
2. Configure the WLANs, as described in “Configuring a WLAN” on page 3-27.
