- Advertise LANCOM-UUID
- Configures whether an access point advertises its UUID. The LANCOM UUID is used, among other things, as an Ekahau extension for combining multiple SSIDs into one access point.
- Advertise LANCOM device name
- Configures whether an access point transmits its device name. To support WLAN site survey tools, the device name of the
access point can be inserted into beacons. The name is identical for all radios of a multi-radio access point, so that the
individual radios can be assigned to an access point by name.
The device name is coded as a vendor-specific info element as follows:
