Virtual Access Points (VAPs)
– 77 –
◆ Mode — Selects the mode in which the VAP will function.
■
AP Mode: The VAP provides services to clients as a normal access point.
■
WDS-AP Mode: The VAP operates as an access point in WDS mode, which
accepts connections from APs in WDS-STA mode.
■
WDS-STA Mode: The VAP operates as a client station in WDS mode, which
connects to an access point VAP in WDS-AP mode. The user needs to
specify the MAC address of the access point in WDS-AP mode to which it
intends to connect.
◆ Maximum Association Clients — The total maximum number of clients that
may associate with this VAP. The maximum is 127, which is the total associated
clients for all VAP interfaces. (Range: 1 to 127; Default 64)
◆ WLAN Client Association Preemption — When enabled, the AP applies a
priority order for associating clients when the maximum clients for the VAP has
been reached. The priority order is 11n clients, 11a/g clients, then 11b clients.
When the association pool for the VAP is full and the AP receives an association
request from a high-priority (11n) client, the AP sends a disassociation to a
lower priority client (11a/g or 11b) in order to be able to associate the high-
priority client. If there are no lower-priority clients to disassociate, the AP will
reject the association request. (Default: Disabled)
◆ Association Timeout Interval — The idle time interval (when no frames are
sent) after which a client is disassociated from the VAP interface. (Range: 5-60
minutes; Default: 30 minutes)
◆ Authentication Timeout Interval — The time within which the client should
finish authentication before authentication times out.
(Range: 5-60 minutes; Default: 60 minutes)
◆ Default VLAN ID — The VLAN ID assigned to wireless clients associated to the
VAP interface that are not assigned to a specific VLAN by RADIUS server
configuration. (Default: 1)
◆ DHCP Relay Server — The IP address of the DHCP relay server. Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can dynamically allocate an IP address and
other configuration information to network clients that broadcast a request. To
receive the broadcast request, the DHCP server would normally have to be on
the same subnet as the client. However, when the access point’s DHCP relay
agent is enabled, received client requests can be forwarded directly by the
access point to a known DHCP server on another subnet. Responses from the
DHCP server are returned to the access point, which then broadcasts them
back to clients. (Default: 0.0.0.0 (disabled))
◆ SSID — The service set identifier for the VAP.
