29 VLAN Commands
The access point can enable the support of VLAN-tagged traffic passing between
wireless clients and the wired network. VLAN IDs can be mapped to specific VAP
interfaces, allowing users to remain within the same VLAN as they move around a
campus site.
Caution: When VLANs are enabled, the access point’s Ethernet port 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 on a wired network that supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags.
The VLAN commands supported by the access point are listed below.
vlan This command enables VLANs for all traffic. Use the no form to disable VLANs.
