Wait, what if the SSID is just 'Password'? Wouldn't that be a hilarious prank on the network admin?

Beacon is the only one that makes sense. Unless you're trying to trick us with a beacon-less SSID, in which case I'm not amused.

Network allocation vector? Really? That's for managing channel time, not announcing the SSID!

Hmm, I'd say the probe request. Gotta sniff out those SSIDs, am I right?

Actually, it's the beacon frame that broadcasts the SSID information to all devices in the area.

Beacon, of course! How else would the network announce its presence to all the devices out there?

And then devices can use that information to connect to the network. Pretty cool, right?
