Assigning Names to VLANs

You can assign a name to a VLAN in addition to its numerical ID. VLAN names
can contain up to 32 ASCII characters. The access point stores each VLAN name
and ID pair in a table.
Guidelines for Using VLAN Names
Keep these guidelines in mind when using VLAN names:
• The mapping of a VLAN name to a VLAN ID is local to each access point,
so across your network, you can assign the same VLAN name to a different
VLAN ID.
TIP
• Every VLAN configured on your access point must have an ID, but VLAN
names are optional.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1783-UM006A-EN-P - May 2014
If clients on your wireless LAN require seamless roaming, We
recommend that you assign the same VLAN name to the same VLAN ID
across all access points, or that you use only VLAN IDs without names.
