wireless networks in the area.

Broadcast: The icon here indicates whether SSID is broadcasted or not in the beacon frames

transmitted by the AP. If SSID is not broadcast then wireless devices will not be able to see the

network name (SSID). The green tick mark indicates that the AP’s SSID is broadcasted to the

public; the red ‘cancel’ icon indicates the SSID is not broadcasted and a device would have to

specify the SSID exactly to connect to this AP.

Profile: This field has a brief description of the security, encryption and authentication combination

assigned to the AP. A Profile is not necessarily unique to an AP; rather this grouping of wireless

settings can be used on more than one AP at the same time.

Radio: The physical radio(s) on which this AP is running on. An AP can run on multiple radios at

the same time for load-balancing and better throughput.

VLAN: The AP can be part of a logical network defined by the VLAN id; this allows devices

connected to the VLAN through this AP to exchange data with one another as in a LAN.

profile, radio, mode, etc. that is used by this AP.

statistics for the AP and the list of the connected clients.
