Command Usage
• The maximum number of supported SSID interfaces is 8. Any index
number in the range 1 to 8 can be selected for an SSID interface.
• Each SSID interface name must be unique.
• The first SSID interface created is automatically set as the primary
and is enabled. Other created SSID interfaces are set as secondary.
The primary SSID is the only SSID broadcast in beacon frames.
Secondary SSIDs are all "hidden," only being advertised in probe
responses. Any SSID interface can be selected as the primary using
the primary command.
• The primary SSID interface must be enabled before enabling any
other secondary SSID interfaces.
• Clients that want to connect to the network via the access point must
set their SSIDs to match one of the access point’s SSID interfaces.
