SSID
Specify the network name.
Each Wireless LAN network uses a unique Network Name to identify the network. This
name is called the Service Set Identier (SSID). When you set up your wireless adapter,
you specify the SSID. If you want to connect to an existing network, you must use the
name for that network. If you are setting up your own network you can make up your
own name and use it on each computer. The name can be up to 20 characters long and
contain letters and numbers.

same channel between AP and URM interface (called as extended interface hereafter).
