Insight Managed Smart Cloud Wireless Access Point WAC505 User Manual
To set the 802.1Q VLAN and management VLAN:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or to
the access point directly through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The default user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you
logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > IP > LAN.
5. To change the 802.1Q VLAN, either clear or select the Untagged VLAN check box:
• Untagged VLAN. By default, the Untagged VLAN check box is selected. The access point sends
untagged frames from its Ethernet interface. Incoming untagged frames are assigned to the untagged
VLAN. By default, the untagged VLAN is VLAN 1 but you can enter another VLAN ID in the field if
that VLAN ID is supported on your network.
• Tagged VLAN. Clear the Untagged VLAN check box only if the hubs and switches on your LAN
support the 802.1Q VLAN protocol. The access point tags all frames that it sends from its Ethernet
interface. Only the incoming frames that are tagged with known VLAN IDs are accepted. Similarly,
change the ID for the untagged VLAN only if the hubs and switches on your LAN support the 802.1Q
VLAN protocol and the new VLAN ID is supported on your network.
