3.5.1.2. Multiple SSID

If you want to configure the Guest and Internal networks on Virtual LAN (VLANs), the switch and

DHCP server you are using must support VLANs. As a prerequisite step, configure a port on the

switch for handling VLAN tagged packets as described in the IEEE802.1Q standard.

The MSSID numbers can setup for 1 to 4 sets. When you enable MSSID you can name each SSID. If

you configure enable Guest access and configure Internal and Guest networks on VLANs, this field

will be enabled. Provide a number between 1 and 4095 for the Internal VLAN. This will cause the

access point to send DHCP requests with the VLAN tag. The switch and the DHCP server must sup-

port VLAN IEEE802.1Q frames. The access point must be able to reach the DHCP server. Check

with the Administrator regarding the VLAN and DHCP configurations.

3.5.1.3. Link Integrity

Fig. 34: Link integrity settings

When the Ethernet LAN interface is detected to be disconnected from the wired network, all currently

associated wireless clients are disassociated by the IEEE 802.11b/g and no wireless client can associ-

ate with the IEEE 802.11b/g. The detection mechanism is based on pinging the IP address specified in

Reference host.

3.5.1.4. Association Control

Fig. 35: Association control settings

If the number of currently associated wireless clients exceeds the value specified in the Max number

of clients setting, no more wireless client can associate with the IEEE 802.11b/g. If traffic load of the

IEEE 802.11b/g exceeds the load specified in the Block clients if traffic load exceeds setting, no

more wireless client can associate with the IEEE 802.11b/g.
