Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Some APs can offer only one SSID per radio. Other APs have a slot of MAC addresses available and can support several SSIDs per radio, using Multiple BSSIDs (MBSSID). MBSSIDs basically are virtual APs that still share the same physical device, which has a half-duplex radio. MBSSIDs are a way to differentiate the traffic reaching the AP, not a way to increase the capacity of the AP.
