Enter up to 31 alphanumeric characters for the profile name. This name
is only visible in the Web Configurator and is only for management
purposes. Spaces and underscores are allowed.

Enter the SSID name for this profile. This is the name visible on the
network to wireless clients. Enter up to 32 characters, spaces and
underscores are allowed.
Security Profile Select a security profile from this list to associate with this SSID. If none
exist, you can use the Create new Object menu to create one.
Note: It is highly recommended that you create security profiles for
all of your SSIDs to enhance your network security.
MAC Filtering
Profile
Select a MAC filtering profile from the list to associate with this SSID. If
none exist, you can sue the Create new Object menu to create one.
MAC filtering allows you to limit the wireless clients connecting to your
network through a particular SSID by wireless client MAC addresses. Any
clients that have MAC addresses not in the MAC filtering profile of
allowed addresses are denied connections.
The disable setting means no MAC filtering is used.
