SSID
Enter a unique name for the mesh SSID. Only a single SSID
is used throughout the mesh network. This SSID operates in
two hidden modes, one as master (receiver) and the other as
managed (provider). Between a root AP and repeater AP, the
managed mode of the root AP SSID connects with the
master mode of the repeater AP. Between two repeater APs,
the managed mode SSID of the 1
st
repeater AP connects
with the master mode of the next repeater AP. This way all
APs are connected wirelessly with each other in a mesh
network. If any of the repeater is missing from the mesh
network, the associated repeater AP connects its elf with the
next available repeater or Root AP in a s imilar way as
discussed above
