tags as they pass between the access point and its destination, these tags help distinguish
data traffic.
Authentication servers (such as Radius) must be on the same Management VLAN.
Additionally, DHCP and BOOTP servers must be on the same Management VLAN as well.
9. Define a
Native VLAN Tag
A trunk port configured with 802.1Q tagging can receive both tagged and untagged traffic.
By default, the access point forwards untagged traffic with the native VLAN configured for
the port. The Native VLAN is VLAN 1 by default. Motorola suggests leaving the Native VLAN
set to 1 as other layer 2 devices also have their Native VLAN set to 1.
10. Use the
LAN
With this assignment, the WLAN uses this assigned LAN interface.
11. Select the
Dynamic
as a dynamic VLAN.
Using Dynamic VLAN assignments, a VMPS (VLAN Management Policy Server) dynamically
assigns VLAN ports. The access point uses a separate server as a VMPS server. When a
frame arrives on the access point, it queries the VMPS for the VLAN assignment based on
the source MAC address of the arriving frame.
If statically mapping VLANs, leave the
its intended VLAN unselected. The administrator is then required to configure VLAN
memberships manually.
The Dynamic checkbox is enabled only when a WLAN is having EAP configured. Otherwise,
the checkbox is disabled.
12. Use the
VLAN
listed on the left-hand side of the screen.
Motorola recommends mapping VLANs strategically in order to keep VLANs tied to the
discipline they most closely match. For example, If WLAN1 is comprised of MUs supporting
the sales area, then WLAN1 should be mapped to sales if a sales VLAN has been already
been created.
