Appendix: Virtual AP (Multi-SSID) FAQ Q1) What is mSSID? Multi-SSID (mSSID) as the name suggest, allows an access point (AP) with a single radio card to support more than one SSID. Q2) What can you do with mSSID connection? The application of mSSID is to provide better security with multiple network path connections from a single AP, to multiple VLAN network segments of the switch on the local area network. A network setup application is illustrated below. E.g.
Q3) Can I update my access point to this mSSID firmware? Yes. You can retain your access point configuration when you update to the mSSID firmware if the current firmware running is v1.3x and above. If AP is running the following configuration setup, updating to the mSSID firmware will affect the configuration. If AP is running as PtP (Point-To-Point) or PtMP (Point-To-MultiPoint) mode.
Q6) I have Pseudo VLAN for Per Group enabled. Will updating to mSSID firmware still support wireless clients with MAC addresses listed in Per Group? The mSSID firmware replaces Pseudo VLAN and integrates it into VAP (Virtual AP) and MAC Filtering. Thus, Pseudo VLAN with its VLAN ID and MAC listing will be lost after updating to mSSID firmware. Refer to the user manual on how to create new VAP with VLAN ID and MAC Filtering.
Q8) I have 2 of the access point units installed at a site about 2km from each other running PtP modes. Should I update to mSSID firmware? Can I do it from one location to update the firmware like I do with the current single SSID firmware? The setup for PtP and PtMP for mSSID firmware is different the current sSSID firmware. After mSSID firmware starts up, the link between the 2 APs will be lost. The recommended method is to setup 2 similar model units in the office.
