When VLAN filtering is enabled, the access point must be using a security
configuration that enables 802.1X authentication (see page 5-74) and have a
RADIUS server configured (see page 5-42). Wireless clients must also support
802.1X client software to be assigned to a specific VLAN.
When VLANs are enabled, the access point's Ethernet interface drops all
received traffic that does not include a VLAN tag. To maintain network
connectivity to the access point and wireless clients, be sure that the access
point is connected to a device port that supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags.
When VLAN filtering is disabled, the access point ignores the VLAN tags on
any received frames.
Enabling or disabling VLAN support using the Web or CLI requires a system
reboot.

Web: Enabling VLAN Support and Setting Filters

The Filter Control window on the Configuration tab to configure frame filtering
on the access point's wireless and Ethernet interfaces.
The web interface enables you to modify these parameters:
■ Native VLAN ID: The VLAN ID assigned to wireless client users that are
not assigned to a specific VLAN by RADIUS server configuration. The
Native VLAN ID is limited to a number between 1 and 4094.
VLAN: Enables or disables VLAN tagging support on the access point.
■
Changing the VLAN support forces a reboot.
■ Local Bridge Filter: Controls wireless-to-wireless communications
between clients through the access point. However, it does not affect
communications between wireless clients and the wired network.
• Disable: Allows wireless-to-wireless communications between
clients through the access point.
• Enable: Blocks wireless-to-wireless communications between
clients through the access point.
■ AP Management Filter: Controls management access to the access
point from wireless clients. Management interfaces include the web,
Telnet, or SNMP.
• Disable: Allows management access from wireless clients.
• Enable: Blocks management access from wireless clients.
■ Ethernet Type Filter: Controls checks on the Ethernet type of all
incoming and outgoing Ethernet packets against the protocol filtering
table.
