The following table describes the fields on the SSID page.
Configuring the Default Network
Each network is identified by its Service Set Identifier (SSID), which is an alphanumeric key
that identifies a wireless local area network. You can configure up to 64 different networks on
the D-Link WLAN Controller Switch. Each network can have a unique SSID, or you can
configure multiple networks with the same SSID.

to configure the settings for before you enable the VAP.
