Multiple bssid allows us to share a single beacon amongst several VAPs. This essentially safes airtime. This feature is achieved by adding an additional IE to the transmitting VAPs beacon. This new IE contains the additional SSIDs and their non-inheritance information. This series is still missing handling for TIM, which will be sent in a follow-up series.
