Configuring Virtual Lan - Weidmuller IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL User Manual

Wi-Fi device IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL
In this scenario, the AP would assign every packet it accepted to a VLAN. Each packet would then be identified
as marketing or human resource, depending on which wireless client received it. The AP would insert VLAN
headers or "tags" with identifiers into the packets transmitted on the wired backbone to a network switch.
Finally, the switch would be configured to route packets from the marketing department to the appropriate
corporate resources such as printers and servers. Packets from the human resource department could be
restricted to a gateway that allowed access to only the Internet. A member of the human resource department
could send and receive e-mail and access the Internet, but would be prevented from accessing servers or hosts
on the local corporate network.

NOTE The VLAN feature can allow wireless clients to manage the AP. If the VLAN Management ID matches a VLAN
ID, then those wireless clients who are members of that VLAN will have AP management access.
CAUTION: Once a VLAN Management ID is configured and is equivalent to one of the VLAN IDs on the AP, all
members of that User VLAN will have management access to the AP. Be careful to restrict VLAN membership
to those with legitimate access to the AP.
