Step 2: Configure the SSID. And click OK to complete the configuration.
The fields shown on this page are interpreted as follows:
WLAN ID: Select a WLAN ID. An SSID matches a WLAN ID one to one. The WLAN ID can be specified only when an SSID is added and cannot be changed subsequently. The maximum value of WLAN ID is 32.
SSID: Enter an SSID name. (Up to 32 characters are supported. Letters, numbers, spaces, “_”, “-”, “.”, and “@” can be used. If spaces are contained, the SSID cannot be longer than 30 characters.)
Encryption Mode: Five modes are available: OPEN, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK , WPA2-ENTERPRISE (802.1X) and PPSK.
OPEN indicates that no password needs to be configured;
WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK indicates that a password needs to be configured.
WPA2-Enterprise (802.1x) indicates that the 802.1x authentication mode is adopted for the SSID. After the 802.1x authentication mode is selected, you need to choose a primary serve and decide whether to enable Jitter Prevention and whether to configure an 802.11x server group.
PPSK indicates that each terminal device is bound with a unique Wi-Fi account and key. After the PPSK mode is selected, you need to configure your account in CONFIGURATION > AUTHENTICATION > PPSK.
Hidden：Specify whether to hide the SSID, which can be set to Yes or No.
Forwarding Mode：Select a forward mode of a wireless AP. NAT indicates that an IP address is allocated to a client by an AP; Bridge indicates that an IP address is allocated to a client by an AP’s upstream device. A VLAN ID must be configured when the Bridge mode selected. （It is recommended to choose NAT.）
NAT Address Pool Configuration: Click the NAT Address Pool Configuration link to display the window.
VLAN ID：Input the ID to choose a VLAN. It is mandatory when the forwarding mode is set to Bridge.
5G-Prior Access：Enable it when the SSID is associated with Radio 1 and Radio 2 for dual-band APs (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) to ensure that clients supporting dual bands access the 5 GHz frequency band preferentially. This reduces the load in the 2.4 GHz frequency band and improves user experience. （In general, it is recommended to keep this feature disabled.）
Speed Limit per Client：Enable it if you want to set speed limit for connect terminals. After you enable it, you need to set both the uplink and downlink speed limits. （In general, it is recommended to keep this feature disabled.）
Speed Limit by SSID： Enable it if you want to set speed limit for the SSID. After you enable it, you need to set both the uplink and downlink speed limits.（In general, it is recommended to keep this feature disabled.）
Auth： Enable it if you want terminals to get authenticated before getting Internet connection. Common APs support External Portal and Captive Portal authentication:
Choose External Portal when authentication is expected to be carried out on an external server;
Choose Captive Portal when authentication is realized on the server of the Cloud.
Configuration steps are explained in the following step.
Step 3: (Optional) If you need to configure portal authentication for the SSID, choose either External Portal authentication or Captive Portal authentication, before referring to the corresponding configuration instruction.
To edit SSID, enable Auth and select External Portal. Fill in the required information and click OK to complete the configuration.

Note: Deletion of radio configurations indicates that the system preserves the current configurations.
In this section, users are allowed to enable features such as eWeb, Telnet, password configuration and user isolation.
(1) eWeb Settings
Enable this feature if you want to set a unified password for the web pages of all APs connected to the network. The system does not push the password to AP if the password is empty.
(2) Telnet Settings
Enable this feature if you want to set a unified password for the Telnet service of all AP s connected to the network. When the Telnet service is enabled, the password is required.
(3) Client Isolation
Clients are isolated without affecting their network access to ensure that they cannot communicate with each other, thereby ensuring client service security. AP-based client isolation or AP&SSID-based client isolation can be selected. If AP-based client isolation is enabled, all layer-2 clients associated with the same AP cannot communicate with each other. If AP&SSID-based client isolation is enabled, clients in the same WLAN on the same AP cannot communicate with each other.
(4) Wireless Intrusion Detection
This part includes DDOS attack detection, flooding attack detection, AP spoof attack detection, and weak IV attack detection. You can choose to enable features based on your needs.
In this part, users can operate configurations about AP RF scheduling, whitelists and CLI commands.
