FIELD

DESCRIPTION

Enable VIRTUAL LAN

Select this box to enable VLAN tagging.

 

 

Management VLAN ID

Enter a number from 1 to 4094 to define this VLAN group.

 

At least one device in your network must belong to this

 

VLAN group in order to manage the NWA.

 

Note: Mail and FTP servers must have the same

 

management VLAN ID to communicate with the

 

NWA.

 

See Section 20.5.2 on page 240 for more information.

 

 

VLAN Mapping Table

Use this table to have the NWA assign VLAN tags to packets

 

from wireless clients based on the SSID they use to

 

connect to the NWA.

 

 

Index

This is the index number of the SSID profile.

 

 

Name

This is the name of the SSID profile.

 

 

SSID

This is the SSID the profile uses.

 

 

VLAN ID

Enter a VLAN ID number from 1 to 4094. Packets coming

 

from the WLAN using this SSID profile are tagged with the

 

VLAN ID number by the NWA. Different SSID profiles can

 

use the same or different VLAN IDs. This allows you to split

 

wireless stations into groups using similar VLAN IDs.

 

 

Second Rx VLAN ID

Enter a number from 1 to 4094, but different from the

 

VLAN ID. Traffic received from the LAN that is tagged with

 

this VLAN ID is sent to all SSIDs with this VLAN ID

 

configured in the VLAN ID or Second Rx VLAN ID fields.

 

See Section 20.5.4 on page 253 for more information.
