Spanning Tree Protocol

In the Spanning Tree Protocol mode, the Enable checkbox is checked by default to enable the STP mode
on the Cisco WAP device. When enabled, STP helps prevent switching loops. STP is recommended if you
configure the WDS links.

VLANs Setting

Use the VLAN Configuration page to view and configure the VLANs settings.
Step 1 Select LAN > More > VLANs Setting Table.
Step 2
Configure these parameters:
• Untagged VLAN ID — Specifies a number between 1 and 4094 for the untagged VLAN ID. The default is 1. The
traffic on the VLAN that you specify in this field is not be tagged with a VLAN ID when forwarded to the network.
• Description — Description of the related VLAN.
• Management VLAN — The Management VLAN is the VLAN used to access the WAP device through Telnet or
the web GUI. There must be only one VLAN as the management VLAN. If no interface (wired or wireless) is
assigned to the Management VLAN, there will be no interface that a user can use to access the configuration utility.
• VLAN — Select from the drop-down list (Untagged or Tagged) VLAN.
By default, all traffic on the WAP device uses the VLAN 1, the default untagged VLAN. This means that all traffic
is untagged until you disable the untagged VLAN, change the untagged traffic VLAN ID, or change the VLAN ID
for a VAP or client using RADIUS.
Step 3 Click Apply. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.

Neighbor Discover

Bonjour enables the WAP device and its services to be discovered by using multicast DNS (mDNS). Bonjour
advertises services to the network and answers queries for the service types that it supports, simplifying
network configuration in your environments.
The WAP device advertises these service types:
• Cisco-specific device description (csco-sb) — This service enables clients to discover the Cisco WAP
• Management user interfaces — This service identifies the management interfaces available on the
When a Bonjour-enabled WAP device is attached to a network, any Bonjour client can discover and get access
to the configuration utility without prior configuration.
