Table 5-2 System Parameters
Parameter Description
Client Name A logical name for your workstation. It allows an administrator to
determine which devices are connected to the access point without
having to memorize every MAC address. This name is included in the
access point’s list of connected devices.
Range: You can key in up to 16 ASCII characters
Default: A blank field
Note Each computer on the network should have a unique client
name.
SSID1 The service set identifier (SSID) identifies the specific wireless
network that you want to access.
Range: You can key in up to 32 ASCII characters (case sensitive)
Default: A blank field
Note If you leave this parameter blank, your client adapter can
associate to any access point on the network that is configured
to allow broadcast SSIDs (see the AP Radio Hardware page in
the access point management system). If the access point with
which the client adapter is to communicate is not configured to
allow broadcast SSIDs, the value of this parameter must match
the SSID of the access point. Otherwise, the client adapter is
unable to access the network.
SSID2 An optional SSID that identifies a second distinct network and enables
you to roam to that network without having to reconfigure your client
adapter.
Range: You can key in up to 32 ASCII characters (case sensitive)
Default: A blank field
Note If a profile specifies more than one SSID, it cannot be included
in auto profile selection.
Note This field is unavailable for any profiles that are included in
auto profile selection.
SSID3 An optional SSID that identifies a third distinct network and enables
you to roam to that network without having to reconfigure your client
adapter.
Range: You can key in up to 32 ASCII characters (case sensitive)
Default: A blank field
Note If a profile specifies more than one SSID, it cannot be included
in auto profile selection.
Note This field is unavailable for any profiles that are included in
auto profile selection.
