3.5.1 VLAN Configuration

Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logically group network. DVW provide VLAN function base on SSID. Each
SSID can be configured one VLAN ID. DVW can support up to 8 SSIDs.
When DVW transmit or receive packets, it matches the SSID and VLAN ID. So that only members of
the VLAN could receive packets from the same VLAN ID members. And VLAN also allow user to
access the network from a different place or network devices. So it provides security and flexibility.
And it also avoids unnecessary traffic on wireless LAN and maximizing throughput.
For example: Configure department A, B, C to VLAN 1, 2, 3. User only can access the resource
which belongs to their department, so the resource in their department can be protected. And they
can access the resource in a different floor, even though in a different place. So they don't need to
stay in a fixed place to access the resource which belongs to their department.
