Figure 59 VLAN Setup

4The ZyAIR attempts to connect with a VLAN-aware device. You can now access and mange the ZyAIR though the Ethernet switch.

Note: If you do not connect the ZyAIR to a correctly configured VLAN-aware device, you will lock yourself out of the ZyAIR. If this happens, you must reset the ZyAIR to access it again.

Dynamic VLAN assignment can be used with the ZyAIR. Dynamic VLAN assignment allows network administrators to assign a specific VLAN (configured on the ZyAIR) to an individual’s Windows User Account. When a wireless station is successfully authenticated to the network, it is automatically placed into it’s respective VLAN.

ZyXEL uses the following standard RADIUS attributes returned from Microsoft’s IAS RADIUS service to place the wireless station into the correct VLAN:
