Field
Description
Broadcast SSID
To enable the Broadcast SSID, select the checkbox directly beside it. By default, the access point 
broadcasts (allows) the Service Set Identifier (SSID) in its beacon frames.
You can suppress (prohibit) this broadcast to discourage stations from automatically discovering your 
access point. When the AP’s broadcast SSID is suppressed, the network name will not be displayed 
in the List of Available Networks on a client station. Instead, the client must have the exact network 
name configured in the supplicant before it will be able to connect.
Station Isolation
To enable station isolation, select the checkbox directly beside it.
• When Station Isolation is disabled, wireless clients can communicate with one another 
normally by sending traffic through the access point.
• When Station Isolation is enabled, the access point blocks communication between 
wireless clients. The access point still allows data traffic between its wireless clients and 
wired devices on the network, but not among wireless clients. The traffic blocking extends 
to wireless clients connected to the network viWDS links; these clients cannot 
communicate with each other when Station Isolation is on. See Chapter 20: “Wireless 
Distribution System”
 for more information about WDS.
Security Mode
Select the Security Mode. Select one of the following:
For a Guest network, the only security mode that can be applied is “None (Plain-text)”. (For more 
information, see Chapter 14: “Setting up Guest Access”.)
Security modes other than “None (Plain-text)” apply only to configuration of the “Internal” network.
