4WirelessModifying Virtual Access Point SettingsTable 11FieldEnabledVAP Field DescriptionsDescriptionYou can enable or disable a configured network.• To enable the specified network, select the Enabledoption beside the appropriate VAP.• To disable the specified network, clear the Enabledoption beside the appropriate VAP.If you disable the specified network, you lose the VLAN IDyou entered.VLAN IDWhen a wireless client connects to the access point by usingthis VAP, the access point tags all traffic from the wirelessclient with the VLAN ID you enter in this field unless youenable the untagged VLAN ID or use a RADIUS server toassign a wireless client to a VLAN. The range for the VLAN IDis 1–4094.If you use RADIUS-based authentication for clients, you canoptionally add the following attributes to the appropriate filein the RADIUS or AAA server to configure a VLAN for theclient:• Tunnel-Type• Tunnel-Medium-Type• Tunnel-Private-Group-IDThe RADIUS-assigned VLAN ID overrides the VLAN ID youconfigure on the VAP page.You configure the untagged and management VLAN IDs onthe Ethernet Settings page.

WirelessModifying Virtual Access Point Settings4Table 11FieldSSIDVAP Field DescriptionsDescriptionEnter a name for the wireless network. The SSID is analphanumeric string of up to 32 characters. Double quote (")is not a valid character. You can use the same SSID formultiple VAPs, or you can choose a unique SSID for each VAP.NOTE: If you are connected as a wireless client to the sameaccess point that you are administering, resetting the SSIDwill cause you to lose connectivity to the access point. Youwill need to reconnect to the new SSID after you save thisnew setting.BroadcastSSIDSpecify whether to allow the access point to broadcast theService Set Identifier (SSID) in its beacon frames. TheBroadcast SSID parameter is disabled by default. When theVAP does not broadcast its SSID, the network name is notdisplayed in the list of available networks on a client station.Instead, the client must have the exact network nameconfigured in the supplicant before it is able to connect.• To enable the SSID broadcast, select the BroadcastSSID check box.• To prohibit the SSID broadcast, clear the BroadcastSSID check box.NOTE: Disabling the broadcast SSID is sufficient to preventclients from accidentally connecting to your network, but itwill not prevent even the simplest of attempts by a hacker toconnect or monitor unencrypted traffic. Suppressing theSSID broadcast offers a very minimal level of protection onan otherwise exposed network (such as a guest network)where the priority is making it easy for clients to get aconnection and where no sensitive information is available.Cisco AP 541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide 60
