Explanation

To configure, secure, and enable an SSID via the Meraki API, a PUT request is used with a JSON payload that includes enabled: true and all required security parameters.

Common mistakes.

• A. This snippet sets enabled to false, which would disable the SSID, contradicting the requirement to enable it.
• C. This snippet only enables the SSID and sets VLAN tagging, but it does not include the necessary parameters for securing the SSID (authMode, encryptionMode, psk).
• D. This snippet enables the SSID but omits crucial security configuration parameters, failing to secure it as required.
