    If I stick an AP in a zone with one SSID, will it continue to broadcast the rest?

     

    I need to add an SSID to a single AP but want the current networks to keep broadcasting...

    Yes, Any SSID which is not assigned to a zone will broadcast from all IAPs in the cluster, even though that are assigned to a zone.

     

    The following constraints apply to the zone configuration:

    • An IAP can belong to only one zone and only one zone can be configured on an SSID.
    • If an SSID belongs to a zone, all IAPs in this zone can broadcast this SSID. If no IAP belongs to the zone configured on the SSID, the SSID is not broadcast. 
    • If an SSID does not belong to any zone, all IAPs can broadcast this SSID.
