Filter Control and VLANs
•
Management VLAN ID specifies the management VLAN ID for the access point.
The management VLAN is for managing the access point. For example, the access point
allows traffic that is tagged with the specified VLAN to manage the access point via remote
management, SSH, SNMP, Telnet, and so forth. VLAN management is enabled by default, and
cannot be disabled.
•
Ethernet Untagged VLAN ID specifies the VLAN ID to which the AP maps untagged packets
entering through the APʹs Ethernet port. Range: 1 to 4094
•
IAPP (Inter Access Point Protocol) enables the protocol signaling required for wireless clients
to roam between different 802.11f‐compliant access points. Select Disable to disable 802.11f
signaling. Default: Enable.
•
IBSS Relay Control, in conjunction with radio interface and Virtual AP (VAP) IBSS settings,
controls whether clients associated with an interface or VAP can establish wireless
communications with clients associated with other interfaces or VAPs. Default: All VAP mode
–

•
Wireless AP Management controls management access to the RBT‐4102 from wireless clients.
Management interfaces include the Web, Telnet, or SNMP. Default: Allow

•
Ethernet Type Filter controls checks on the Ethernet type of all incoming and outgoing Ethernet
packets against the protocol filtering table. Default: Disable

4-18 Advanced Configuration
Note: You must set up the network switch port to support tagged VLAN packets from the access
point. The switch port must also be configured to accept the access point's management VLAN ID
and native VLAN IDs.
In All VAP Mode, clients associated with any IBSS enabled radio interfaces or VAPs can
establish wireless communications with each other.
In Per VAP Mode, clients associated with a specific IBSS enabled radio interface or VAP can
establish wireless communications with other clients associated with the same interface or
VAP. For example, clients associated with VAP1 can establish wireless communications
with each other but not with clients associated with an IBSS enabled VAP2.
Disable permits management access from wireless clients. The default setting.
Enable blocks management access from wireless clients.
Disable: The access point does not filter Ethernet protocol types.
Enable: The access point filters Ethernet protocol types based on the configuration of
protocol types in the filter table. If a protocol has its status set to "ON," in the filter table,
the access point filters that protocol.
Local Management lists the Ethernet protocols.
ISO Designator specifies the ISO designators for each Ethernet protocol listed.
Status indicates, by radio button selection, whether the access point filters this Ethernet
protocol. ON indicates filtering for this Ethernet protocol. Off indicates no filtering for this
Ethernet protocol.
Note: Ethernet protocol types not listed in the filtering table are always forwarded by the access
point.
