Configuring VLANs

In this example, wireless clients are assigned to either VLAN 60 or 61 while guest users are assigned to VLAN 63. VLANs 60 and 61 split users into smaller IP subnetworks, improving performance by decreasing broadcast traffic. The VLANs are internal to the Dell controller only and do not extend into other parts of the wired network. The clients’ default gateway is the Dell controller, which routes traffic out to the 10.1.1.0 subnetwork.

You configure the VLANs, assign IP addresses to each VLAN, and establish the “helper address” to which client DHCP requests are forwarded.

In the WebUI

1.Navigate to the Configuration > Network > VLANs page. Click Add to add VLAN 60.

a.For VLAN ID, enter 60.

b.Click Apply.

c.Repeat steps A and B to add VLANs 61 and 63.

2.To configure IP parameters for the VLANs, navigate to the Configuration > Network > IP > IPInterfaces page.

a.Click Edit for VLAN 60.

b.For IP Address, enter 10.1.60.1.

c.For Net Mask, enter 255.255.255.0.

d.Under DHCP Helper Address, click Add. Enter 10.1.1.25 and click Add.

e.Click Apply.
