The VLAN feature enables all wireless clients that access the network through the same WL520 to be configured as members
of the same VLAN. In this scenario, each wireless NIC is configured with the same VLAN ID. The same VLAN header or tag is
then applied to all traffic received from wireless clients and transmitted on the wired or wireless backbone. All wireless clients
become members of the same VLAN.
To configure this scenario, set up one, large workgroup:
VLAN ID for Wireless NIC in Slot A = 0 or a number between 1 and 4094
VLAN ID for Wireless NIC in Slot B = 0 or a number between 1 and 4094

Management access to the WL520 can easily be secured by making management stations or hosts and the WL520 device
itself members of a common VLAN. Simply configure a non-zero management VLAN ID and enable VLAN to restrict
management of the WL520 device to members of the same VLAN.

NOTE:
If a non-zero management VLAN ID is configured then management access to the WL520 is restricted to wired or
wireless hosts that are members of the same VLAN. Ensure your management platform or host is a member of the
same VLAN before attempting to manage the WL520 device.
