13.5 Configuring “Internal” Wireless LAN Settings
The Internal Settings describe the MAC Address (read-only) and Network Name
(also known as the SSID) for the internal Wireless LAN (WLAN) as described in
Table 13.2.
Field Description
MAC Address Shows the MAC address(es) for Internal interface for this access point. This is a read-only field that
you cannot change.
Although this access is point is physically a single device, it can be represented on the network as
two or more nodes each with a unique MAC Address. This is accomplished by using multiple Basic
Service Set Identifiers (BSSIDs) for a single access point.
The MAC address(es) shown for the “Internal” access point is the BSSID(s) for the “Internal” interface.
For the two-radio AP, two MAC addresses are shown: one for each Radio on the Internal interface.
Wireless Network
Name (SSID) Enter the SSID for the internal WLAN.
The Service Set Identifier (SSID) is an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that uniquely
identifies a wireless local area network. It is also referred to as the Network Name. There are no
restrictions on the characters that may be used in an SSID.
