Set The 802.1Q Vlan And Management Vlan - NETGEAR WAX630E User Manual

Insight Managed WiFi 6E AXE7800 Tri-band Multi-Gig Access Point Model WAX630E
Set the 802.1Q VLAN and management
VLAN
The 802.1Q VLAN protocol on the access point logically separates traffic on the same
physical (wired) network. This protocol can work with tagged and untagged VLANs, as
follows:
• Untagged VLAN: 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. By default, the access point functions with an untagged
VLAN.
• Tagged VLAN: 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.
The management VLAN is used for managing traffic such as Telnet, SNMP, HTTP, and
HTTPS traffic sent to and from the access point. Frames that belong to the management
VLAN and that are sent over the trunk do not receive an 802.1Q header. If a port is a
member of a single VLAN, its traffic can be untagged.
To set the 802.1Q VLAN and management VLAN:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as
the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, you can proceed, or add an exception
for the security warning. For more information, see What to do if you get a browser
security warning on page 44.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously added the access point to a NETGEAR Insight network location and
managed the access point through the Insight Cloud Portal or Insight app, enter the
Insight network password for that location. For more information, see Connect over
WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight app on page 26.
