DESCRIPTION
#
This is the index number of each SSID profile.
Status
This shows whether the SSID profile is active (a yellow bulb) or not (a gray bulb).
SSID
An SSID profile is the set of parameters relating to one of the NBG6716’s BSSs. The SSID
(Service Set IDentifier) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless device is associated.
This field displays the name of the wireless profile on the network. When a wireless client
scans for an AP to associate with, this is the name that is broadcast and seen in the
wireless client utility.
Security
This field indicates the security mode of the SSID profile.
Edit
Click the
Edit
icon to configure the SSID profile.

LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Active
Select this to activate the SSID profile.
Name (SSID)
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless client is
associated. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable characters found on a typical
English language keyboard) for the wireless LAN.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot
obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Intra-BSS Traffic
A Basic Service Set (BSS) exists when all communications between wireless clients or
between a wireless client and a wired network client go through one access point (AP).
Intra-BSS traffic is traffic between wireless clients in the BSS. When Intra-BSS is enabled,
wireless clients can access the wired network and communicate with each other. When
Intra-BSS is disabled, wireless clients can still access the wired network but cannot
communicate with each other.
WMM QoS
Check this to have the NBG6716 automatically give a service a priority level according to
the ToS value in the IP header of packets it sends.
WMM QoS (Wifi MultiMedia Quality of Service) gives high priority to voice and video, which
makes them run more smoothly.
Enable Guest
WLAN
Select the check box to activate guest wireless LAN. This is available only for the last SSID
on the NBG6716.
Note: Only Router mode supports guest WLAN. AP mode doesn’t support guest WLAN.
IP Address
Type an IP address for the devices on the Guest WLAN using this as the gateway IP
address.
IP Subnet
Mask
Type the subnet mask for the guest wireless LAN.

unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned at the factory and
consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02. You need to know
the MAC address of the devices to configure this screen.
To change your NBG6716’s MAC filter settings, click

options appears in this screen. See
Section 11.3 on page 89
for detailed information on
different security modes. Or you can select
