Abstract
Systems and techniques for dynamically assigning virtual access points (VAPs) to multiple basic service set identifier (MBSSID) sets are described. An example technique includes generating a set of VAPs, where each VAP of the set of VAPs has a non-configured state. A first VAP configuration is received and includes an indication of a physical (PHY) mode associated with the first VAP configuration. A first VAP of the set of VAPs is assigned to a first MBSSID set, based at least in part on the PHY mode. The first VAP is configured according to the first VAP configuration.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- generating a set of virtual access points (VAPs), each VAP of the set of VAPs having a non-configured state;
- receiving a first virtual access point (VAP) configuration, the first VAP configuration comprising an indication of a physical (PHY) mode associated with the first VAP configuration;
- assigning a first VAP of the set of VAPs to a first multiple basic service set identifier (MBSSID) set, based at least in part on the PHY mode;
- and
- configuring the first VAP according to the first VAP configuration.
A computing device comprising:
- one or more memories collectively storing computer-executable instructions;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors being collectively configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to cause the computing device to perform an operation comprising:
- generating a set of virtual access points (VAPs), each VAP of the set of VAPs having a non-configured state;
- receiving a first virtual access point (VAP) configuration, the first VAP configuration comprising an indication of a physical (PHY) mode associated with the first VAP configuration;
- assigning a first VAP of the set of VAPs to a first multiple basic service set identifier (MBSSID) set, based at least in part on the PHY mode;
- and
- configuring the first VAP according to the first VAP configuration.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media containing, in any combination, computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computing system, perform an operation comprising:
- generating a set of virtual access points (VAPs), each VAP of the set of VAPs having a non-configured state;
- receiving a first virtual access point (VAP) configuration, the first VAP configuration comprising an indication of a physical (PHY) mode associated with the first VAP configuration;
- assigning a first VAP of the set of VAPs to a first multiple basic service set identifier (MBSSID) set, based at least in part on the PHY mode;
- and
- configuring the first VAP according to the first VAP configuration.
