Different channels for different SSID's?

[tim_buster]

Hi all, we have multiple WLANS/SSID's on our controller, which are broadcasting on all AP's.

Is it possible to configure the AP's to broadcast the SSID's on different channels or is this not necessary/usefull.

Do the 2 SSID's interfere?

Thanks in advance!

No need... Every radio will be set to a different channel not every ssid. As long as you use non overlapping channels you should be okay. Ex. 2.4ghz use 1,6 or 11

Two ssids are fine. The more ssids you create, the more beacons in the air. Cisco had a best practice of no more than 4 if possible especially with older devices on the network. It doesn't mean you can't have more.
