The access point supports filtering of up to 64 VLANs (virtual local area networks).
VLAN IDs must be configured for each client on one of the RADIUS authentication
servers specified on the RADIUS configuration page. If a RADIUS server is not being
used or not setup to update the VLAN ID, then the access point will tag all ethernet
packets with the Native VLAN ID (defaulted to 1).
If a RADIUS authentication server will be used to create/modify the VLAN ID, the
following attributes must be provisioned on the RADIUS Server to be passed back to
the authenticating client:
