VLAN Commands
The access point can enable the support of VLAN-tagged traffic passing
between wireless clients and the wired network. Up to 64 VLAN IDs can be
mapped to specific wireless clients, allowing users to remain within the same
VLAN as they move around a campus site.
When VLAN is enabled on the access point, a VLAN ID (a number between 1
and 4094) can be assigned to each client after successful authentication using
IEEE 802.1X and a central RADIUS server. The user VLAN IDs must be
configured on the RADIUS server for each user authorized to access the
network. If a user does not have a configured VLAN ID, the access point
assigns the user to its own configured native VLAN ID.
When VLANs are enabled, the access point's Ethernet interface drops all
received traffic that does not include a VLAN tag. To maintain network
connectivity to the access point and wireless clients, be sure that the access
point is connected to a device port that supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags.
The VLAN commands supported by the access point are listed below.
