￿Click on the SNMP link under the Management menu. This option allows you to assign a VLAN tag to the packets. A VLAN is a group of computers on a network whose software has been configured so that they behave as if they were on a separate Local Area Network (LAN). Computers on VLAN do not have to be physically located next to one another on the LAN

￿Management VLAN ID: If your network includes VLANs and if tagged packets need to pass through the Access Point, specify the VLAN ID into this field. If not, select the No VLAN tag radio button.

￿Note: If your reconfigure the Management VLAN ID, you may lose connectivity to the Access Point. Verify that the switch and DHCP server can support the reconfigured VLAN ID, and then re-connect to the new IP address.
