Service Set ID (SSID)
The SSID is a unique identifier that client devices use to associate with the access
point. The SSID helps client devices distinguish between multiple wireless
networks in the same vicinity. The SSID can be any alphanumeric entry up to 32
characters long.
You can also enter this setting on the Express Setup and AP Radio Identification
pages.
Allow Broadcast SSID to Associate?
You use this setting to choose whether devices that do not specify an SSID
(devices that are “broadcasting” in search of an access point to associate with) are
allowed to associate with the access point.
• Yes—This is the default setting; it allows devices that do not specify an SSID
(devices that are “broadcasting” in search of an access point to associate with)
to associate with the access point.
• No—Devices that do not specify an SSID (devices that are “broadcasting” in
search of an access point to associate with) are not allowed to associate with
the access point. With no selected, the SSID used by the client device must
match exactly the access point’s SSID.
Enable World Mode
When you select yes from the world-mode pull-down menu, the access point adds
channel carrier set information to its beacon. Client devices with world-mode
enabled receive the carrier set information and adjust their settings automatically.
