Automatically Assigned to a Radio Port VLAN
Attaching RPs to Infrastructure Switches
If you connect an RP to an infrastructure switch, rather than to the wireless services-
enabled switch, the VLAN memberships are not automatically created on the
infrastructure switch. Instead, you must manually create the Radio Port VLAN on
the infrastructure switch and then add each RP’s switch port as an untagged member
of that VLAN.
To allow RP traffic to be transmitted between the infrastructure switch and the
wireless services-enabled switch, you must make the ports that connect the switches
members of the Radio Port VLAN, which is VLAN 2100 by default. Typically, you
will make these ports tagged members of the Radio Port VLAN, because they must
also carry traffic for other VLANs such as the management VLAN. (See
Figure 2-32.) However, if the downlink ports on both switches carry only traffic from
the Radio Port VLAN, you can make these ports untagged members of the Radio
Port VLAN.
