It is recommended that the AP allow the broadcast of ESSIDs to 
simplify the configuration of SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones. 
SpectraLink terms this function Automatic Learn. If there are 
overlapping WLAN areas at your site, the Automatic Learn function 
may not work properly in the areas that receive signals from two or 
more APs. 

Sites with heightened security issues may not want ESSID 
broadcast enabled. If it is not enabled, the ESSID must be 
programmed into every handset.
