Configure Multiple VLAN/SSID Pairs

VLAN/SSID

NOTE:

For Dual-radio APs: APs with an 11a Upgrade Kit or 802.11b/g Kit support up to 16 VLAN/SSID pairs. APs with an 802.11b PC Card or a 5 GHz Upgrade Kit support only one VLAN/SSID per radio.

The four primary scenarios for using VLAN workgroups are as follows:

VLAN disabled: Your network does not use VLANs, but you can configure the AP to use multiple SSIDs.

VLAN enabled, all VLAN Workgroups use the same VLAN ID Tag

VLAN enabled, each VLAN workgroup uses a different VLAN ID Tag

VLAN enabled, a mixture of Tagged and Untagged workgroups

NOTE:

You must reboot the AP before any changes to these parameters take effect.

1.Click Configure > VLAN.

2.Place a check mark in the Enable VLAN Protocol box to enable VLAN support.

3.Click the tab for Wireless A or Wireless B (if applicable).
