CAUTION
Be sure to enter a VLAN ID that is properly configured on the network. Network
problems can result if the VAP associates wireless clients with an improperly
configured VLAN.
When a wireless client connects to the WAP device by using this VAP, the WAP
device tags all traffic from the wireless client with the VLAN ID you enter in this field,
unless you enter the port VLAN ID or use a RADIUS server to assign a wireless
client to a VLAN. The range for the VLAN ID is from 1 to 4094.

NOTE
If you change the VLAN ID to a different ID than the current
management VLAN ID, WLAN clients associated with this specific VAP
cannot administer the device. Verify the configuration of the untagged and
management VLAN IDs on the LAN page. For more information, see

SSID Name—A name for the wireless network. The SSID is an alphanumeric
string of up to 32 characters. Choose a unique SSID for each VAP.
string of up to 32 characters. Choose a unique SSID for each VAP.
NOTE
If you are connected as a wireless client to the same WAP device that
you are administering, resetting the SSID will cause you to lose connectivity
to the WAP device. You need to reconnect to the new SSID after you save
this new setting.

Broadcast SSID—Enables and disables the broadcast of the SSID.
Specify whether to allow the WAP device to broadcast the SSID in its
beacon frames. The Broadcast SSID parameter is enabled by default. When
the VAP does not broadcast its SSID, the network name is not shown in the
list of available networks on a client station. Instead, you must enter the exact
network name manually into the wireless connection utility on the client so
that it can connect.

Disabling the broadcast SSID is sufficient to prevent clients from
accidentally connecting to your network, but it does not prevent even the
simplest of attempts by a hacker to connect or monitor unencrypted traffic.
Suppressing the SSID broadcast offers a very minimal level of protection on
an otherwise exposed network (such as a guest network) where the priority
is to make it easy for clients to get a connection and where no sensitive
information is available.
