Service set identifier (SSID) for wireless communications using multiple link aggregation

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for wireless communications. In one aspect, an apparatus may obtain, for a first access point (AP), a first service set identifier (SSID) associated with single-link communications and obtain, for a second AP, a second SSID associated with multi-link communications. The apparatus may obtain, from a wireless communication device, a management frame include a multi-link operation information field that carries a first SSID and obtain a multi-link indication for the wireless communication device based, at least in part, on the first SSID, the multi-link indication indicating whether the wireless communication device includes AP capable of link aggregation, and selectively associate with the wireless communication device based on the multi-link indication.
