When Tagged is selected from the drop-down menu, the Access Point forwards all tagged frames in
the native VLAN and admits only tagged frames on trunks. When Tagged is selected the Access
Point drops any untagged traffic, including untagged traffic in the native VLAN. Untagged is selected
by default.
11 Use the LAN drop-down menu to map one of the two LANs to the WLAN listed to the left. With
this assignment, the WLAN uses this assigned LAN interface.
12 Select the Dynamic checkboxes (under the Mode column) to configure the VLAN mapping as a
dynamic VLAN.
Using Dynamic VLAN assignments, a VMPS (VLAN Management Policy Server) dynamically assigns
VLAN ports. The access point uses a separate server as a VMPS server. When a frame arrives on the
access point, it queries the VMPS for the VLAN assignment based on the source MAC address of the
arriving frame.
If statically mapping VLANs, leave the Dynamic checkbox specific to the target WLAN and its
intended VLAN unselected. The administrator is then required to configure VLAN memberships
manually.
The Dynamic checkbox is enabled only when a WLAN is having EAP configured. Otherwise, the
checkbox is disabled.
13 Use the VLAN drop-down menu to select the name of the target VLAN to map to the WLAN listed
on the left-hand side of the screen.
Extreme Networks recommends mapping VLANs strategically in order to keep VLANs tied to the
discipline they most closely match. For example, If WLAN1 is comprised of MUs supporting the
sales area, then WLAN1 should be mapped to sales if a sales VLAN has been already been created.
14 Click Apply to return to the VLAN Name screen. Click OK to return to the LAN screen. Once at the
LAN screen, click Apply to re-apply your changes.

Configuring LAN1 and LAN2 Settings

Both LAN1 and LAN2 have separate sub-screens to configure the DHCP settings used by the LAN1 and
LAN2 interfaces. Within each LAN screen is a button to access a sub-screen to configure advanced
DHCP settings for that LAN. For more information, see
on page
132. Additionally, LAN1 and LAN2 each have separate Type Filter submenu items used to
prevent specific (an potentially unnecessary) frames from being processed, for more information, see
"Setting the Type Filter Configuration" on page
