be defined from within the WLANs assigned to BSSID groups 1 through 4. Each BSSID
beacons only on the primary WLAN.
The user should assign each WLAN to its own BSSID. In cases where more than four WLANs
are required, WLANs should be grouped according to their security policies so all of the
WLANs on a BSSID have the same security policy. It is generally a bad idea to have WLANs
with different security policies on the same BSSID, as this will result in warning or error
messages.
8. Use the Primary WLAN drop-down menu to select a WLAN from those WLANs sharing the
same BSSID. The selected WLAN is the primary WLAN for the specified BSSID.
9. Click Apply to save any changes to the Radio Settings and Advanced Settings screens.
Navigating away from the screen without clicking Apply results in changes to the screens
being lost.
10. Click Undo Changes (if necessary) to undo any changes made to the screen and its sub-
screens. Undo Changes reverts the settings to the last saved configuration.
NOTE If using a single-radio access point, there are 4 BSSIDs available. If using
a dual-radio access point, 4 BSSIDs for the 802.11b/g/n radio and 4
BSSIDs for the 802.11a/n radio are available.
WLAN Lists the WLAN names available to the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n
radio that can be assigned to a BSSID.
BSSID Assign a BSSID value of 1 through 4 to a WLAN in order to map the
WLAN to a specific BSSID.
BC/MC Cipher A read only field displaying the downgraded BC/MC (Broadcast/
Multicast) cipher for a WLAN based on the BSSID and VLAN ID to
which it has been mapped.
Status Displays the following color coded status:
Red - Error (Invalid Configuration)
Yellow - Warning (Broadcast Downgrade)
Green - Good (Configuration is OK)
Message Displays the verbal status of the WLAN and BSSID assignments. If
