Hi Rob,
This is quite possible, have a look at the following docs;
This section describes the authentication types that you can configure on the access point. The authentication types are tied to the SSIDs that you configure for the access point. If you want to serve different types of client devices with the same access point, you can configure multiple SSIDs.
From this doc;
Understanding Multiple SSIDs
The SSID is a unique identifier that wireless networking devices use to establish and maintain wireless connectivity. Multiple access points on a network or sub-network can use the same SSIDs. SSIDs are case sensitive and can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Do not include spaces in your SSIDs.
You can configure up to 16 SSIDs on your 1200 series access point and assign different configuration settings to each SSID. All the SSIDs are active at the same time; that is, client devices can associate to the access point using any of the SSIDs. These are the settings you can assign to each SSID:
VLAN
Client authentication method ***(ie:WEP)***
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note For detailed information on client authentication types, see "Configuring Authentication Types."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximum number of client associations using the SSID
RADIUS accounting for traffic using the SSID
Guest mode
Repeater mode, including authentication username and password
Redirection of packets received from client devices
From this doc;
Hope this helps!
Rob
