Nebula - SSID Name Scripting

SSID Name Scripting allows setting a unique SSID for each AP.
The main benefit is here that you can surpass the limit of 8 SSIDs on a Nebula site.
This feature was implemented to allow, for example, schools or hotels to have a unique SSID for each room.

This feature is named programmable SSID on Nebula and is part of the Nebula Pro.

This programmable SSID provides an option that allows users to set all site-wide APs automatically with:

Unique SSID names
Unique passwords
Solution for per-room SSID deployment

Information about command parameters for the SSID

$AP(n) – SSID name contains first “n” characters of the AP device name
$AP(-n) – SSID name contains last “n” characters of the AP device name
$MAC(n) – SSID name contains first “n” characters of the AP MAC address
$SN(n) – SSID name contains first “n” characters of the AP serial number
the SSID name can be configured with a mix of command parameters
Users can append fixed characters in the SSID name

Information about command parameters for the PSK

$GENMIX(n) – SSID PSK contains “n” lower-case letters and numbers in total
$GENNUM (n) – SSID PSK contains “n” numbers in total
Password command must have 8 or more characters
Programmable SSID only supports SSID using WPA2-Personal
All APs follow site-wide password if the field is empty

Extra characters are ignored if "n" is more than the characters in the name, MAC address, serial number.

"n" refers to a number.

Examples

1. Adding the first three characters of the AP name to the SSID name, beginning with "Wi-Fi ".

2. Adding the first six characters of the MAC to the SSID name beginning with "WiFi-".

3. Adding the last four characters of the serial number to the SSID name, beginning with "WiFi-".

4. This example shows a combination of the AP name ($AP(-3) -> last three characters of the AP name) and serial number ($SN(-2) -> last two characters of the MAC).
