SSID Profile

Context

An SSID profile is mainly used to configure STA association and access parameters based on SSIDs, including the SSID name, STA association timeout period, legacy terminal access, and QoS CAR.

Procedure

Create an SSID profile.

Choose Configuration > Wireless Services > Profile > Wireless Service > SSID Profile. The SSID Profile List page is displayed.
Click Create. The Create SSID Profile page is displayed.
Enter the name of the new SSID profile in Profile name.
To copy all parameters from another profile to the new profile, select the name of the profile in Copy parameters from other profiles. If None is selected, parameters are not copied from another profile.
Click OK. The parameter setting page of the new SSID profile is displayed.

Set parameters for creating an SSID profile. Table 1 describes the parameters for creating an SSID profile.

**Table 1** Parameters for creating an SSID profile
Parameter	Description
SSID Profile	Name of the SSID profile, which cannot be modified.
SSID	Name of the SSID. NOTE: When command lines are used to configure an SSID name containing non-English characters, the non-English characters can only be edited using the command editor of the UTF-8 encoding format.
Association timeout (min)	STA association timeout period. If an AP receives no data packet from an STA in a continuous period of time, the STA goes offline after the association timeout period is reached.
Maximum number of STAs	Maximum number of access STAs on a single VAP.
Action upon reaching the maximum	New STA access control when the number of access STAs on a VAP reaches the maximum.
Disable non-HT terminal access	Whether to disable non-HT terminal access.
802.11r
802.11r fast roaming	Whether to enable the 802.11r function.
Re-association timeout interval	Reassociation timeout period.
EDCA Parameters
Area	Preset EDCA parameters for different scenarios. Users can select the corresponding scenarios or adjust the preset EDCA parameters. User-defined: EDCA parameters use default settings. Voice: Voice packets preferentially use a channel. Voice and video: Voice and video packets preferentially use a channel.
Packet Type	Packet type. AC_VO: Voice AC_VI: Video AC_BE: Best Effort AC_BK: Background
AIFSN	Arbitration inter frame spacing number (AIFSN), which determines the channel idle time. A larger AIFSN value indicates that the STA must wait for a longer time and has a lower priority.
ECWmin	Exponent form of the minimum contention window (ECWmin) and exponent form of the maximum contention window (ECWmax) together determine the average backoff time. Larger ECWmin and ECWmax values indicate that the average backoff time for the STA is longer and the STA priority is lower.
ECWmax
TXOPLimit	Transmission opportunity limit (TXOPLimit), which determines the maximum duration in which an STA can occupy the channel. A larger TXOPLimit value indicates that the STA can occupy the channel for a longer time.
Inbound CAR Parameters
CIR (kbit/s)	Average rate of traffic that can pass through in the inbound direction.
PIR (kbit/s)	Maximum rate of traffic that can pass through in the inbound direction.
CBS (bytes)	Average volume of committed burst traffic that can pass through in the inbound direction.
PBS (bytes)	Maximum volume of burst traffic that can pass through in the inbound direction.
Admin Frame Expense Optimization
Beacon frame rate on 2.4G radio (Mbit/s)	Rate at which 2.4 GHz Beacon frames are sent.
Beacon frame rate on 5G radio (Mbit/s)	Rate at which 5 GHz Beacon frames are sent.
Deny broadcast probe	Whether to disable an AP from responding to broadcast Probe Request frames.
Probe response retry	Number of times Probe Response packets ate retransmitted.
Others
DTIM interval	Number of Beacon frames sent before the Beacon frame that contains the DTIM.
Hide SSID	Whether to enable SSID hiding in Beacon frames.
U-APSD power saving mode	Whether to enable U-APSD.
AP name broadcast	Whether to enable Beacon frames to carry the AP name.
MU-MIMO	Whether to enable MU-MIMO.
MU-MIMO enhancement	Whether to enable MU-MIMO enhancement.
Inter-AC Roaming	Whether to enable inter-AC roamingt.
STA service assurance	Mode of the service guarantee. Performance first: Sets the service guarantee mode to performance-first. Reliability first: The service guarantee mode is set to reliability-first.

Modify an SSID profile.
1. Choose Configuration > Wireless Services > Profile > Wireless Service > SSID Profile. The SSID Profile List page is displayed.
2. Click the name of the SSID profile that you want to modify. The SSID profile configuration page is displayed.
3. Set parameters for modifying an SSID profile. Table 1 describes the parameters for modifying an SSID profile.
4. Click Apply.
Delete an SSID profile.
1. Choose Configuration > Wireless Services > Profile > Wireless Service > SSID Profile. The SSID Profile List page is displayed.
2. Select the profile that you want to delete and click Delete. In the Confirm dialog box that is displayed, click OK.
Display the profile reference relationship.
1. Choose Configuration > Wireless Services > Profile > Wireless Service > SSID Profile. The SSID Profile List page is displayed.
2. Select the profile of which you want to display the reference relationship and click Display Reference Relationship. The system displays the types and names of the objects that reference the profile.
  NOTE:
  Click Hide Reference Relationship. The system hides the displayed results.
