Set Virtual AP (Multiple SSID)
Virtual AP implements mSSID (Multi-SSID) whereby a single wireless card
can be setup with up to 16 virtual AP connections with different SSIDs or
BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier) and security modes.
Virtual AP delivers multiple services by VLAN segmentation: making the
network think there are many SSIDs available and channeling each
connection through different VLANs to the respective virtual network
segments on the Ethernet network.
How it Works
When WLAN PC 1 connects to VAP 1 its packets are channeled to
VLAN 10 group where only services connected to Port 2 and Port 3 are
available to this wireless connection.
It is similar for WLAN PC 2 and WLAN PC 3. Although they connect to
the same radio card as WLAN PC 1, WLAN PC 2 can only access the
services available at Port 6 and Port 7 and WLAN PC 3 can only access
the services available at Port 10 and Port 11.
