When the Wi-Fi interface is configured to be an Access Point, in order to forward packets to
and from the Wi-Fi interface it must be bridged with an Ethernet interface using a Bridge
instance.
Interface
The interfaces that are currently members of the selected Bridge instance. Note that
multiple Wi-Fi interfaces can be members of the same Bridge instance.
Link this Wi-Fi client interface with Ethernet n
When the Wi-Fi interface is configured to be a client, it must be bridged to a particular
Ethernet interface.
This Wi-Fi rogue scanner will use Ethernet n
When the Wi-Fi interface is configured to be a rogue scanner, it will use the selected
Ethernet interface.
Hide SSID
When enabled, the SSID will not be included in the beacon messages transmitted by the Wi-
Fi interface when in Access Point mode. This means that Wi-Fi clients will not be able to
auto-detect the Access Point.
Isolation
When enabled, connected Wi-Fi clients will not be able to communicate with other Wi-Fi
clients or Ethernet hosts connected to this AP.
