Support for various SSIDs per AP Profile
Background
- Several SSIDs are normally defined for each AP profile.
- An SSID is then in turn linked to an exit point.
- These defined SSIDs are applied to all APs belonging to an AP profile.
- One of our customers requires an option to define individual SSIDs/passwords for individual APs and at the same time have a single SSID that also applies to all APs.
- To meet our customer's requirements, we have made the following improvements.
Apply to all or selected APs
- You can set a flag when defining a SSID to indicate if it should be applied to all APs.
Apply static SSID to AP
- When adding or editing an AP to AP Profile one can now select from the pool of static entry points (Entry Points which does not have the Apply to all set)
- Once you selected an item from the list, there is additional options to override certain items.
- These are:
- SSID
- Pre-shared key (of the SSID has WEP or WPA Personal security set)
- VLAN number if the selected SSID is connected to a VLAN type exit point.
Visual indication
- To make things easy recognized we add a small visual indication in the AP list to show that the SSID value was overwritten.
