Chapter 16 VLAN

16.2 Configuring VLAN

The ZyXEL Device allows you to configure VLAN based on SSID profile (wireless VLAN), and / or based on your RADIUS server (RADIUS VLAN).

When you use wireless VLAN, the ZyXEL Device tags all packets from an SSID with the VLAN ID you set in the Wireless VLAN screen.

When you use RADIUS VLAN, your RADIUS server assigns VLAN IDs to a user or user group’s traffic based on the configuration in the RADIUS VLAN screen.

When you use wireless VLAN and RADIUS VLAN together, the ZyXEL Device first tries to assign VLAN IDs based on RADIUS VLAN configuration. If a client’s user name does not match an entry in the RADIUS VLAN screen, the ZyXEL Device assigns a VLAN ID based on the settings in the Wireless VLAN screen. See Section 16.2.4 on page 188 for more information.

"To use RADIUS VLAN, you must first select Enable VIRTUAL LAN and configure the Management VLAN ID in the VLAN > WIRELESS VLAN screen.
